open DatePicker programmatically?

[Doug]

Hello:

As the subject line states, is there a way to open the DatePicker programmatically?

Hi Doug,

You can indeed open the DatePicker component programmatically. It provides various API methods, but the ones relevant to this problem are Open and Close. You can access them by capturing a reference to the DatePicker component using the @ref attribute.

I'm providing an example using the Telerik REPL platform: Open DatePicker Programatically
