How to get a mini calendar webpart like an asp.net calendar webpart

Question

I would like to display a mini calendar as webpart on a sharepoint page. I have tried all the calendar views but nothing satisfied the requirement. I need something like an asp.net calendar that user can just over a date or click to see there events. Any ideas where i can find something or build it? Thanks in advance

Answer 3

Take a look at this project on Codeproject.

I have used it before with a few modifications, it works pretty well. You can remove the bottom part with the event listing if you only want the calendar.

If you are able to use the Out of the Box filter web parts, the Date Filter Web Part is the one you can use. Check out a couple of links:
