    I have added this code to the KeyDown event for the datetimepicker and the Delete key clears the value as expected, but the Backspace key just sets the date back six months. Is there something I'm missing:

    if (e.KeyData == Keys.Delete || e.KeyData == Keys.Back)
    {
        fromField.SetToNullValue();
        e.Handled = true;
    }

    Hi Paul,

    Thank you for writing.

    It seems that the Handled flag is not taken into consideration in this case. I have logged it in our Public Issue Tracking System and you can add your vote for this issue here: http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/winforms/15191.

    To work around the issue you can use the KeyUp event of the control:
    void radDateTimePicker1_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.KeyData == Keys.Delete || e.KeyData == Keys.Back)
        {
            radDateTimePicker1.SetToNullValue();
        }
    }

    Your Telerik Points have been updated for this report.

    Should you have any other questions or suggestions, do not hesitate to contact us.
     
    Regards,
