Hi John,

You could set properties of RadCalendar inside RadDateTimePicker through the CalendarStyle property and of the RadClock with RadClockStyle property. Here is a quick example how to set the FontSize:

-first define the Styles inside the Resources:

<UserControl.Resources>

<Style TargetType="telerik:RadCalendar" x:Key="CustomCalendarStyle">

<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20" />

</Style>

<Style TargetType="telerik:RadClock" x:Key="CustomClockStyle">

<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20" />

</Style>

</UserControl.Resources>

then set them to the DateTimePicker:

<telerik:RadDateTimePicker Width="200"

CalendarStyle="{StaticResource CustomCalendarStyle}"

ClockStyle="{StaticResource CustomClockStyle}"/>

I hope this helps.

Regards,

To make the DateTimePicker control usable for our client, it would need to do two things.

1) We need the textbox portion to NOT validate when the control loses focus. If a user type in the TextBox, "67 Chevelle", it should stay that way. We want the database to do any and all validation. Now if the user picks a date and/or time, it would use a specific format we supply, but if a user types any value in the TextBox, it should stay as is.

2) We need to have a calendar layout like one seen in the attachment. It should be able to be placed at the side (as shown) or at the bottom. It would be able to scroll with a single column, or two column, etc. The values would be dictated as they are now.

Thanks...
