  Hi,
  I have a requirement to display the header of the datetimepicker as "December 2011" instead of "December - 2011".
  
  I went through the style of  CalendarHeaderButton, in which i found the below 2 lines of code which is used to display the header in the control,
  
  

   

  <

   

   

  TextBlock x:Name="BackgroundText" Foreground="{StaticResource HeaderTextBackground}" FontWeight="{StaticResource HeaderTextFontWeight}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Margin="0 2 0 0" Text="{TemplateBinding Content}" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  <TextBlock x:Name="ForegroundText" Foreground="{StaticResource HeaderTextForeground}" FontWeight="{StaticResource HeaderTextFontWeight}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Margin="0 1 0 1" Text="{TemplateBinding Content}" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>

   

   

   

   

  Since TemplateBinding is used here, i am not able to use a Converter to achieve this. Is there any alternate way to do this?

  Hello Surendra,
  
  You just need to set MonthViewHeaderFormat property of the Calender in DateTimePicker like this:
  
  

  <telerik:RadDateTimePicker InputMode="DateTimePicker">

      <telerik:RadDateTimePicker.CalendarStyle>

          <Style TargetType="telerik:RadCalendar">

              <Setter Property="MonthViewHeaderFormat" Value="MMMM yyyy" />

          </Style>

      </telerik:RadDateTimePicker.CalendarStyle>

  </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>

  
  You don't need to edit the template.  Here you can find all the custom format strings that can be used.
  
  Kind regards,
