Datetimepicker control

DC
Hi All,

Is there any way to find out which portion of a datetimepicker control in a
windows form has been selected?

Thanks.

DC,

I don't completly understand your question, however do you mean the text? or
the value? or something else.

However there is never a should, you decide what you take.

Hi Cor,

Thanks for responding.
In the datetimepicker control, know how the cursor moves between DAY, MONTH
and YEAR when you use the arrow keys.
Suppose I am in the DAY portion of the datetimepicker control and use the
[right arrow] key, the cursor moves to the [MONTH] portion, and the MONTH is
selected.
This is what I want to trap.
I want to know which portion in the datetimepicker control has been
selected.

Regards,
DC

DC,

Sorry, I have looked however not really found an answer, you can of course
check the clicks and the points to screen however that is a solution that
takes a lot of time.

I tried the click and screen point, but no luck.
I even tried to loop thru subcontrols in datetimepicker, but it appears not
to have any sub-controls.
Oh well. I suppose that is the functionality of the control :-(

Thanks for your effort Cor, much appreciated.
Regards,
DC

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

.... the minimum date of DateTimePicker is 1753-01-01. How to make DateTime to do not show nothing in its text if this date is the value? I have a form with a field LastLogonDate.

When adding a new record from my form, I pre-set my DateTimePicker's value to System.DateTime.Today Since the "Today" value is used most of the time, the user doesn't need to select a date from the DateTimePicker, since the default is shown. My problem is, if the user does not choose a value from the DateTimePicker (because using the default is good enough), then during database update, the date value is not saved to the database; while if...

I've come across an interesting bug. I have workarounds but i'd like to know the root of the problem. I've stripped it down into a short file and hope someone might have an idea about what's going on. It's a simple program that loads a control onto a form and binds "Foo" against a combobox ("SelectedItem") for it's "Bar" property and a datetimepicker ("Value") for it's "DateTime" property. The DateTimePicker.Visible value is set to...

Hello: We were hoping to allow users to have DateTimePicker value null so that a unused date is stored on a Database. Does the control support this? I am pretty sure it doesn't. How would you go about representing this to a user so they are not confused? Thanks,

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
