Greetings group,
I have a situation where I'd like to visibly see disabled dates on a
DateTimePicker. Frequently the Min and Max dates in the picker will be
set only to days apart, and so I would like this to be reflected in a
way other than it simply failing to select when they click. It seems
like this would be doable with a MonthCalendar control, however the
DateTimePicker itself doesn't seem to expose an internal MonthCalendar,
nor does it provide any kind of hihglighting options.
I'm open to any/all crazy suggestions. :)
Chris.

Nope, try it yourself. Just add a DateTimePicker and a MinDate and
MaxDate, and for me, by default, it simply means the user can't click
those dates once the MonthCalendar control has dropped down. Visibly there
isn't a difference between a valid date in the current month and an
invalid date in the current month.

Yes the Idea is valid in theory and thin air. I don't see how to control
each individual day format.
It is not available like on in the web control.
You are right, it's not available.
You will have to do it yourself. Before doing that I advise you to google
aroudn for projects, this may be asked and answered before.
For example a query of datetimepicker color in google returned this: http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscct...timepicker.asp
Otherwise take a look at some commercial options like Infragistics.
Infragistics implement a kind of CSS for windows controls that is super
cool, You can change the look of your application on the fly and the
controls are very configurable

Yeah, I had googled and found several similar but not quite examples of
other controls. I was just wondering if there was some kind of simpler
method that I had somehow missed.

Looks cool, I may have to see if management will go for it.

Hi.
I have a DateTimePicker on a win form in VB.NET 2003, and I have a database
table that contains different dates as records.
What I want to do is detect what dates are exist in the database, and mark
then on the DateTimePicker.
Does anyone know how can I mark a specific date in the DateTimePicker (which
is not the current date)?
Thanks!
Tom Rahav.

I have extended the datetimepicker control to incorporate
a ReadOnly property.
I have used the new keyword to implement my own version
of the value property, so that if readonly == true then
it will not set the value of the control and will leave
the checked status of the checkbox to false when a user
selects a new date.
this works fine when using the control on a win2k machine
but if we use it on a win XP box and call

I have a number of DateTimePicker controls, some set to dates, some set to a
format of Time. The controls are all embedded in dialogs. I created the
controls by dragging the DateTime picker from the Toolbox and then set the
Format property appropriately.
I have noticed that sometimes the Time format will reset spontaneously to
Short Date. I looked at the .rc file and found that the usual form for a
Short Date is as follows:

Hello
I am using two datetimepicker controls to allow the user to select two
dates. I've called them dateIn and dateOut. After they pick the dateIn, I
want to set its Leave method to automatically set the date of dateOut to
whatever was selected in dateIn + 2 days (as this will be the most common
selection for the second date).
I tried this:
dateOut.value = dateIn.value + 2

NG,
Maybe I'm missing a key step, but it seems when typing dates into a
DateTimePicker control (format = 'Short'), the controls' .text property is
not updated until the control losses focus.
I'm handling an <enter> key event on a DateTimePicker control.
Essentially I want to give a user the ability to type a date in the
DTP, and press <enter> and have a DataGrid populate with user
supplied data from the DTP control.

Hi,
I am working on datetimepicker and want make the dates out of my range
disabled.
There are APIs that I have used: minDate, maxDate. It works fine.
However, users can not tell which date can't be selected as the dates
in the dropdown are with the same color.
This is not kind to user.
I want to make the dates out of the selectable range to show a
different color as they are disabled.

I am trying to write an app in C# that requires the user to enter a date
from 4000 B.C.E to 4000 C.E. I tried to use the DateTimePicker Control

Is there a way to override the DateTimePicker control's minimum allowed
