    Hi Paul,

    Use the ForeColor property like this:
    var border = radDateTimePicker1.DateTimePickerElement.Children[1] as BorderPrimitive;
    border.ForeColor = Color.Red;

    I hope this helps.

    Hello Dimitar,

    I tried your solution but it didn't have any effects. Please help me to solve my propblem

    My code are:

    public static void ApplyDefaultStyles(this RadDateTimePicker picker)
            {
                picker.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
                picker.Margin = new Padding(0);
                picker.AutoSize = false;
                picker.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
                picker.CustomFormat = MarsConstants.DateFormat;
                picker.Value = DateTime.Now;
                picker.Font = ComponentSettings.DefaultFont;
                picker.ForeColor = ComponentSettings.DefaultForeColor;
                picker.BackColor = ComponentSettings.WhiteColor;
                picker.ThemeName = ComponentSettings.DefaultThemeName;
                picker.EnableTheming = true;
     
                // Arrow button
                picker.DateTimePickerElement.ArrowButton.Border.LeftWidth = 0;
                picker.DateTimePickerElement.ArrowButton.Border.TopWidth = 0;
                picker.DateTimePickerElement.ArrowButton.Border.RightWidth = 0;
                picker.DateTimePickerElement.ArrowButton.Border.BottomWidth = 0;
                picker.DateTimePickerElement.ArrowButton.Fill.BackColor = ComponentSettings.DefaultColor;
                ImagePrimitive imagePrimitive = picker.DateTimePickerElement.ArrowButton.FindDescendant<ImagePrimitive>();
                if (imagePrimitive != null)
                {
                    imagePrimitive.Padding = new Padding(15, 8, 15, 8);
                    imagePrimitive.Image = Properties.Resources.Image054.ResizeImage(UICommon.IconModel.Arrow.Width, UICommon.IconModel.Arrow.Height);
                }
     
                var border = picker.DateTimePickerElement.Children[1] as BorderPrimitive;
                if (border == null) return;
                border.ForeColor = Color.Red;
            }

     

    Also, I's using custom format for date picker based on frequently, maybe it break the format of border?. The logic are:

    For dayly or weekly format:
    dateTimePicker.CustomFormat = "MM/dd/yyyy";
    Or for monthly format
    dateTimePicker.CustomFormat = "MM/yyyy";
    Or for yearly format
    dateTimePicker.CustomFormat = "yyyy";

    Hi Paul,

    It seems that you are using a theme where the border is not painted. So you need to set the ShouldPaint property as well:
    var border = picker.DateTimePickerElement.Children[1] as BorderPrimitive;
    border.ShouldPaint = true;
    border.ForeColor = Color.Red;

    Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.
