    Hi Vijay,

    Could you please tell us exactly what is that you could not accomplish? How I see it, is that you can calculate the Minimum and Maximum values of the slider based on the Ticks of the DateTime (2009 and 2012 years). The TickFrequency can be also calculated and they would be the Ticks for exactly one month.

    For the labels, you can set the TickTemplate and use an IValueConverter, which will convert the Tick values to DateTime objects. You can return the year of the parsed date time, only when the Month is one. This would show only the name of the year ticks and not the months.

    Please let us know if you have questions on this or need assistance.

    Best wishes,

    Hi Vijay,

    The project is created for Silverlight 5, this is why you cannot open it. However, I attached the same solution but for Silverlight 4. Let me know if it works for you.

    Kind regards,

    Hello Vijay,

    In order to enable the selection range you need to set the RadSlider.IsSelectionRangeEnabled property to True. Then in your solution it would be best to bind the Selection property of the slider. It is of type SelectionRange<double> and it allows you to set the start and end of a selection range.

    Binding the Selection will allow you to control it through a business property which you can dynamically change and set its initial value before or after the application is loaded, depending on your scenario.

    You can also handle the SelectionChanged event to find the current SelectionStart and SelectionEnd values. Please note that in runtime the values of the RadSlider SelectionStart/SelectionEnd and Selection properties are synchronized.

    I modified the sample to demonstrate this approach. Please give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

    Kind regards,
