Problem with validation and culture

[Luis]

Hello,

this is my control code:

<telerik:raddatepicker ID="RadDatePicker1" Style="display" MinDate="2009-01-01" runat="server"

          Width="110px" Culture="es-ES" Calendar-CultureInfo="Spanish (Spain)" DateInput-Culture="es-ES" DateInput-DateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy" DateInput-DisplayDateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy">

          <Calendar ID="Calendar1" runat="server" CultureInfo="Spanish (Spain)" UseColumnHeadersAsSelectors="False" UseRowHeadersAsSelectors="False" ViewSelectorText="x"

            TitleStyle-CssClass="CalendarioBarraTitulo" FastNavigationStyle-CssClass="CalendarioBarraTitulo" CalendarTableStyle-VerticalAlign="NotSet"

            EnableViewState="False">

          </Calendar>

          <DateInput ID="DateInput1" runat="server" Culture="es-ES"  ReadOnly="False" DateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy" DisplayDateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy">

          </DateInput>

        </telerik:raddatepicker>

I have defined a culture and i want the control not to validate a date format that is correct in other culture but not in mine. For example, the format "MM/dd/yyyy" is wrong for my culture, so "21/12/2009" is a correct date and "12/21/2009" should not. But if I type "12/21/2009", the control accepts that date and changes it to "21/12/2009".

Is there a way to solve this problem?

Hello Luis,

Unfortunately the behavior you are trying to achieve is not possible. The RadDateInput will always format the date depending on the culture settings.
