Jun 22, 2018 Placing a date picker control in your document. Place your cursor at the position where you want to insert a date picker control. Click on the Date Picker Control on the ribbon toolbar as shown above. With the date picker control selected as shown above, click on “Properties” on the ribbon bar.
Here is a sample document showing a repurposed Publication Date Document Property Content Control used in a Calculated Date field from Paul Edstein's date calculation tutorial. It is possible to add properties (and related mapped content controls) to this list. Insert a date picker on the form template. Double-click the date picker that you inserted on the form template. Click the Data tab. In the Data type box, click Date and Time (dateTime). Once you click the more controls it open a new box with a list of options. In the list, scroll down the Microsoft date and time picker and select it. Now you need to place the calendar somewhere on the screen. So select some part on your excel sheet and place it. In the next step, turn off the design mode under developer tab.
Sometimes in a MicrosoftWordDocument, we want to add in our Document a DatePicker where someone can select a specific Date. We want the Calendar to be displayed, and for them to select a Date. This is where the ContentControls show up, where all we need to do is to create one. A quite simple procedure but very helpful one. All you need to do is to keep on reading the post below.
What are ContentControls thought first? They are individual controls that we can add and customize for use in templates, forms, and documents. For example, many online forms are designed with a drop-down list control that provides a restricted set of choices for the user of the form. Content controls can provide instructional text for users, and we can set controls to disappear when users type in their own text. Source here.
In the image below I have activated the Developer tab, where we can see the areas that the Ribbon contains.
We must then select the DatePickerContentControl command from the area of the ribbon named Controls as shown below, where we will be able to Insert A Date Content Control.
Before we select the command, we must place the cursor at the place where want our DatePickerContent Control to be inserted in our Document. Once we have done that, we select the command and then in our Document we notice a ControlPicker mentioning Click Or TapTo Enter A Date. Once the ControlPicker is still selected, we select the command Properties of the Controls area of the ribbon on the Developer tab as shown below.

Whatever adjustment we make, at the end we must select the Ok button which is located at the bottom right corner of the ContentControlProperties dialog box for them to take place.
