Don't use inline parameters, you can use Parameterized query as below

using (var con = new OleDbConnection(@"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=  C:\Users\JAY\Desktop\Employee.mdb"))
using (var cmd = new OleDbCommand("select * from Emp_Details WHERE DOB= ?", con))
{
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@P1", monthCalendar1.SelectionRange.Start);
    using (var da = new OleDbDataAdapter(cmd))
    {
        da.Fill(ds, "Emp_Details");
        if (ds.Tables["Emp_Details"] !=null && ds.Tables["Emp_Details"].Rows.Count>0)
        {
            DataRow dr = ds.Tables["Emp_Details"].Rows[0];
            txtEmployeeNo.Text = dr[0].ToString();
            txtName.Text = dr[1].ToString();
            txtAddress.Text = dr[2].ToString();
            comboBox1.Text = dr[3].ToString();
            txtMobNo.Text = dr[4].ToString();
        }
    }
}
