I am trying to get the date parts selected by a user on the MonthCalendar control. I know how to set the date, thanks to some help from this forum. Now I have run into another problem. I need to be able to take the MONTH, YEAR and DAY selected by the user. I have tried this example I saw, but it does not work, mmDay = CalendarMonth.Tex.ToString("d").
View 1 Repliesi am having problems getting my calendar to work, passing a start and end date for a rental car and displaying on the form the number of days chosen and the amount for the total. This is the first form problem I have done. I cannot see what I am doing wrong. It does not figure number of days and the amount just stays zero.

I would like to be able to either: (1) Pick a date from the Monthcalendar box and have it insert that day into a textbox showing in a format of Day of week, Month/Day/Year or Day of week, mm dd yyyy. or in option #2 be able to enter in the date by mmddyyyy and get Day of week, mm dd yyyy showing in the textbox.

View 16 RepliesI created a monthcalendar usercontrol and calling it from a parent form (in this case, click on button to populate the textbox beside it). Two questions.
1. How do I return the selected date back to the parent textbox?
2. How do I bring the monthcalendar usercontrol to the front and back of other objects?
Can I change a bolded date's color of a MonthCalendar control without creating a new custom control? Should I override OnPaint event, or something for this? If so, how?
View 5 RepliesI've seemed to found some interesting behavior with the stock MonthCalendar control. I've set the MinDate property to 1/1/1990 but when I try to actually select a date anywhere previous to 1/1/2000 it jumps to 12/31/2999 why is that?
I've tries manually setting it to 4/8/1998 and it jumps to 4/8/2998 which isn't what I would expect a calendar control to do. Is there a reason it keeps it within the 21st century?

Is there any way of getting the year, month & date separate from the DateTimePicker / MonthCalendar?
I have a month calendar on a form. It is showing 2 months, when I select the start date for a range of dates, the month calendar blinks for about 1 second. Here is the code that gets the start date, sets the end date (28 days later), then assigns a date to the text of 28 checkboxes by looping through the control collection.[code]

I saw a Digital Diary and want to create one by myself to learn the techniques. I'm learning Visual Basic (2005). I want your help for the followings; 1) I want to get the "page" (the RichTextBox) linked to the dates in the Monthcalendar ie I wrote something for 20th Oct 2009 and saved, then I select 12th Nov 2009, write & save. I want the page for 20th Oct 2009 opened when I click the 20th Oct 2009 in the Monthcalendar Or page of 12th Nov 2009 opened if I click the 12th Nov 2009 in the MonthCalendar. Can you explain how to do this? Please tell the codes.
2) On starting the program, I want the "Page" for the current Date appears. (and on changing the Date, the "Page" for that particular Date should be opened.) 3) I want to make the User to create a UserName and enter a Password (User selected - can be changed at any time by him) to open the Diary. (Similar to the User account with Password in Windows.)
Is it somehow possible to use MonthCalendar as DateTimePicker? Initially current date in Monthcalendar is highlighted, but it is possible with mouseclick to highlight whatewer other date. Does there exist a method or function or something else to retrieve

View 4 RepliesWhen you open a MonthCalendar control at runtime, and click on the top Month designator, it takes you to a list of all 12 months in order to jump back or forward to a desired month quickly.
My question is, can I restrict the user to only viewing this 12-month calendar at start-up, so that I can just read the Month the user wants to say run a report from.
I realize I could use just a DropDown, or list box with the 12 month names in it, but since the control has this ability to view by month, I figured I would ask.
It would also allow me to reuse a control that I also use to pick a specific date, keeping my code a bit more compact on filesize, and save the control space for a new Combobox or something.
I put a monthcalendar in my form and when I select a range of date, the selected area goes white, all the dates in the selected range go white. I have no clue how to fix this.

View 7 RepliesI have a MonthCalendar control on a panel and it is invisible; when the user clicks on a button I make the panel visible which is fine but the calendar control selected date is highlighted half on one date and half on the other.
Why is this happening? If I simply show the control it does this.

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to bold dates on a monthCalendar control. Here's what I've got, but it's showing an error of "'Add' is not a member of 'System.Array'.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim calendarArray() As DateTime
[Code]....
All I want to do is bold all of the dates on the calendar that there are files for.
I want to update some things on the form when the user clicks a new date (or changes the month, which automatically selects a new date). If I use the DateSelected event, it seems to work as expected when I use the mouse. However if the arrow keys are used, the event does not get triggered. If I use the DateChanged event, it seems to go into an infinite loop. The message box pops up a zillion times when I click the arrow to change the month:
Private Sub MonthCalendar1_DateChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DateRangeEventArgs) Handles MonthCalendar1.DateChanged
MessageBox.Show("DateChanged")[code]....
The only problem with using the DateSelected event is that if the user uses the arrow keys, the event is not fired. I thought I could fix this by disallowing the use of the arrow keys, but I couldn't find anywhere to do that.
is it possible to change the size of the MonthCalendar to say double its standard size and still only display a single month?
When I resize using clientsize, width and height the multiple months are displayed?
I am using a monthcalendar control in my application to allow a user to select a day from the calendar that will load data for that day. the background is totally white (ugh). there is a backcolor property, but when i set it to say Cyan (yea right), the calendar still displays as white. I also can not set Forecolor, TitleBack/Fore color either.
I have gone to my project properties and turned off the "enable xp visual styles", and that had no effect. turned it back on...cant tell a difference. i am currently on windows 7 running VS2008 Team Edition. It would be really nice to change the look of this control to match the styling of my application.
i have a monthcalendar control on a form, and about every minute or so, the click event fires. this is wierd, since i look at the call stack and nothing called it.
