<p>
The value in <var>DialogPosition</var> is stored in DlgForm as well. At 
design-time, the dialog position is always aligned to the center of the 
screen (or current monitor). When DialogPosition is <var>poDesigned</var>, 
the form coordinates in DlgForm are set to the values in the <var>Left</var>

<var>Memory</var>, <var>Precision</var>, and <var>Value</var> properties are 
copied into the corresponding properties in DlgForm.
</p>
<p>
Execute calls the <var>ShowModal</var> method in DlgForm to display the modal 
calculator dialog form. The return value for the method is set to <b>True</b> 
when the modal result from the form is <var>mrOk</var>. When the result is 
<b>True</b>, the <var>Memory</var> and <var>Value</var> properties are 
updated with the values form the dialog form. The <var>Change</var> method is 
called when the Value property has been altered.

The coordinates for the form are captured on exit, and stored in the 
<var>Left</var> and <var>Top</var> properties. The dimensions for the form

<var>DialogScale</var> is an <var>Integer</var> property which indicates the 
scaling percentage applied to the height and width for the calculator dialog. 
When the value for the property is changed, it its validated and adjusted to 
ensure that it is in the range <b>80...400</b> (the minimum and maximum 
allowed for the property).
</p>
<p>
DialogScale is passed as the multiplier argument to the <var>ScaleBy</var> 
method in <var>TCalculatorForm</var>; the divisor is always set to <b>100</b>.
</p>
<p>
The default value for the property is <b>100</b>, and indicates that the 
dialog is displayed at <b>100%</b> of its designed size.

<short>
<var>TCalendarDialog</var> - a popup calendar dialog that allows a date to be 
selected and returned to the main program.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>TCalendarDialog</var> is a <var>TExtCommonDialog</var> descendant which 
implements a calendar dialog used to select a date from a 
<var>TCalendar</var> control. It provides a Date property that contains the 
date used when selecting a date using the Calendar control displayed in the 
dialog.
</p>
<p>
TCalendarDialog creates and configures a <var>TForm</var> instance that is 
displayed in the <var>Execute</var> method for the dialog. The form uses the 
<var>Title</var>, <var>DialogPosition</var>, <var>DisplaySettings</var>, and 
<var>Date</var> properties assigned in the class. A new <var>TCalendar</var> 
control is created for the form, and stored in the <var>Calendar</var> 
property. Methods which implement the event handlers for the calendar control 
are also assigned. The form instance is displayed modally, and the modal 
result is captured in the <var>UserChoice</var> property. <var>Date</var> is 
updated when a calendar date is selected while the form is active.

</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>Execute</var> is an overridden method in <var>TCalendarDialog</var>. It 
creates and configures a new TForm instance displayed for the dialog 
component. The dialog form includes controls needed to select a 
date value, and to accept or reject the selected value. This includes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>TCalendar</li>
<li>TButton instances for the OK and Cancel buttons.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Values from properties in the class instance are used to configure the dialog 
form, including:
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Title</dt>
<dd>
Used as the Caption for the dialog form.
</dd>
<dt>DialogPosition</dt>
<dd>
Sets the Position property in the form instance at run-time. At design-time, 
the dialog is centered on the screen.
</dd>
<dt>DisplaySettings</dt>
<dd>
Sets the display settings used for the TCalendar instance on the dialog form.
</dd>
<dt>Date</dt>
<dd>
Sets the initial value for DateTime in the TCalendar instance on the dialog 
form.

Methods in the class instance are assigned to the event handlers for the 
dialog form and its controls, including:

<dt>DialogClose</dt>

<dt>CalendarDblClick</dt>
<dd>
Assigned to the OnDblClick event handler in the TCalendar instance on the

<p>
The ShowModal method for the dialog form is called to display the form and 
capture the return value. The return value is <b>True</b> if the ModalResult 
value is mrOK (when the OK button was clicked). The return value is 
<b>False</b> if the Cancel button was clicked or the form was closed using 
the window decoration.
</p>
<p>
The date selected using the calendar control is stored when the 
CalendarChange routine is executed (via TCalendar.OnChange). This causes 
the OnChange event handler in the class instance to be signalled to store the 
updated value.
</p>
<p>
The form is freed prior to exiting from the method.

FirstDayOfWeek contains one of the values from the TCalDayOfWeek enumeration 
like dowMonday, dowSunday, et. al. The default value for the property is 
dowDefault and causes the default day of the week setting for the platform to 
be used. Please note that this is not compatible with the dowLocaleDefault 
value used in Delphi.
</p>
<p>
The value is assigned to the FirstDayOfWeek property in the internal TCalendar 
instance when the Execute method is called. It configures the calendar 
instance to display the selected day of the week as the first column for the 
day grid used on the calendar control.
