Programmatically Find Backcolor Of A DateTimePicker Control
May 4, 2012
The backcolor of a default DateTimePicker control seems to be Color.White, but can this change based on a users theme colours and how do I find out what it is currently set to?(There is no backcolour property and DateTimePicker.DefaultBackColor returns SystemColors.Control which is not actually correct)I guess that if someone can confirm that this can't change then I am safe to hard code it? The basis of this question was not actually a typo, it was the fact that BackColor does not show up in my DateTimePicker control intellisense.

It is a requirement that all .net Controls are created on the main thread, at least this is necessary if the intent is to integrate the control in with the interface which is usually the case. Additionally to modify properties on the control one must invoke the method from the control's thread using its own invoke method.
Is there a way to look at a control and identify its owning thread directly?
Additionally or conversely, is it possible to detect whether the current thread is the "Main thread"? Is there anything special about the thread that Visual Studio identifies as the main thread that can be seen at runtime, or is it simply that this is the first thread that VS executes to initialise debugging?

I've created a custom DateTimePicker and implemented code I found on the web to allow customization of the BackColor of the dtp (Making use of WndProc). However, I've discovered that this doesnt work in Windows 7 with the XP Visual Styles option enabled in the project. How to make this work for Win7, without disabling the Visual Styles (the controls look ugly without them).
Below is the code I'm using:
Private _BackColorBrush As SolidBrush = New SolidBrush(SystemColors.Window)
Public Overrides Property BackColor As Color
Get
Return MyBase.BackColor
End Get
Set(value As Color)
[Code] .....

Ok here is the problem I have. On the tab control in visual basic 2010 there does not seem to be an option to change backcolor. I have searched the web for 6 hours (no joke actually 6 hours) but I have not been successful.

I have searched the web and not found a good resolution for this problem in vb.net.
When you change a color in the controls property it does not respond with the color changes.

I would like to a) programatically and b) remotely find out the last date/time that a user successfully logged into a Windows machine (via remote desktop or at the console). I would be willing to take any typical windows language (C, C#, VB, batch files, JScript, etc...) but any solution would be nice.

I am able to find out when is the last time a user log into a domain but I am also wondering if it is possible to find out what's the machine's name or IP.
In my Active Directory, I see there is an attribute called logonWorkstation but it seems not being used (no value stored)

I have not been able to find a way to get the datetimepicker with ShowUpDown= True and custome format set to h:m tt to increment in 15 min intervals. I have been able to set it when the form is loaded to the nearest 15 min increment. But I need it to increment in 15 minutes units.
This can be down with the NumericUpDown control, but I need two of them one for the hour and one for the minutes and set it's Increment property to 15. Again I can set it to adjust to correct hour and the nearest 15 min. And of course I have to watch and when I go over 60 reset to zero and increment the hour control.
The users will be burly oil field workers using a Panasonic Tablet PC with a stylus in the field. It seems that it would be easier if I could increment the datetimepicker in 15 intervals.

Basically, I have a form. It has two datetimepickers which both have the format of "dd MMMM yyyy hh:mm:ss"..However, I want to be able to do some calculations with them and return a format of: "ddd dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss" with the milliseconds but not sure how to show the milliseconds. And how to do the calculations..A date and time gets entered in the datetimepicker of "18 November 2010 02:59:07"And in the other one the data may be: "20 November 2010 01:59:07"..I want to be able to find the difference between them - including the milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, year, month and date. etc..I have looked through the internet however, nothing uses a datetimepicker [code]I currently have this, it returns the number of different fields, but not sure how I can convert this into a readable time/date.

I have a DataGridView with 3 columns (metric_key, metric_name, metric_value).There are for example, 6 ROWS in this table (6 different metrics), added programmatically (DGV is not bound in any way)
Now, when I assign values in my grid I do:
dataGridView1.item("Metric_value",0).value = "value of the metric in row 0, in the column named "metric_Value".

If you enter 11 for instance into the year component of the date then tab off the control the text returned to the validation function is the text before the year was entered rather than the new text.The problem can be overcome by making the control invisible then visible. This has been the case since Visual Studio 2003, it would seem to be a bug.

Wasn't really sure what to name this thread or how to explain it. I have a form with a dateTimePicker control on, textbox for days, button and label, when the button is pressed I'd like the amount of days put into the textbox to be added to the value in the datetimpicker then the result being put into the label.
E.g. Select 26th November in the DTP, then put 6 into the textbox, press the button then have 2nd December come out in the label. I've tried a few things but all fails and just gives me back the original value in the DTP.

I am having the following problem, when the user wants to use the DateTimePicker (DTP), the date box shows in the middle of the screen. Then if the user wants to select a date he cant, instead the date box goes away and the DTP value remains unchanged. This is not always happening, sometimes it works fine and sometimes this happens.Please go to the link below for an image (you can see that the DTP control is on the left while the date box is to the right):[URL].. application is being run from a server to a local client on the user machine, I dont know if this has anything to do with it.

I know that you can create custom formats for the DateTimePicker control, and I've googled this but is there any way that you can allow a user to only select Sunday dates in a Month with this control?
