Formatting input and display with RadDateInput

[Tom Renfro]

I'm trying to add a control to a web page that allows the user to enter date values in a variety of ways, hoping the control will display in the correct format.  I currently use a date type in another product that automatically formats the input to the correct value.  Example:  if the user types in 05052005, the control should convert the value to 5/5/2005, conversely if the user enters 05/05/2005, the control should convert to 5/5/2005.

Any ideas or help is welcomed.

I found what was wrong.

The property for MinDate was set too high.  I was entering a valid date lower than the default value.

Also, I had DateFormat and DisplayDateFormat set to M/d/yyyy, and when entering a date within the minimum and maximum values, it works beautifully.

Thanks.
