[Solved] Rad Calender issue

[Kevin]

Hi I have looked at the code demos and looked at the calendar sample site and would like to know why the function that i'm trying to loosely base on day render function doesn't want to work this is my code

  TableCell currentCell = new TableCell();
            RadCalendarDay day = new RadCalendarDay(RadCalendar1);
            MonthView view = new MonthView(RadCalendar1);

            Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs e = new Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs(currentCell, day,view);

            DateTime CurrentDate = RadCalendar1.SelectedDate;
            backgroundColor1 = Color.Red.Name;
            backgroundColor = Color.Green.Name;

            currentCell = e.Cell;
            currentCell.Style["background-color"] = backgroundColor;

            string Connection = "Data Source=62.197.41.101; Initial Catalog=PilotWebApp; User ID=sa; Pwd=medularis;";

            SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(Connection);
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Slot_sp_EngineerTimeslots_Group", conn);
            cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PROPREF", strPropref);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PRIORITYCODE", PRIORITYCODE);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@JOBLENGTH", "30");
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@TIMESLOT", "AT");
            conn.Open();
            SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
            DataTable dt = new DataTable();
            dt.Load(reader);
            DayOfMonth = DateTime.Today.Day;

            int rows = dt.Rows.Count;
            endDate = RadCalendar1.SelectedDate.AddDays(rows);

            foreach (DataRow dr1 in dt.Rows)
            {
                startDate = DateTime.Parse(dr1["BookedDate"].ToString());

                if (CurrentDate >= startDate.Date && CurrentDate <= endDate.Date)
                {
                    Label label = new Label();
                    label.Text = e.Day.Date.Day.ToString();
                    label.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green;
                    e.Cell.Controls.Add(label);

                    // disable the selection for the specific day
                    RadCalendarDay calendarDay = new RadCalendarDay();
                    calendarDay.Date = CurrentDate;
                    calendarDay.IsSelectable = true;
                    RadCalendar1.SpecialDays.Add(calendarDay);
                }
                CurrentDate.AddDays(1);
            }

what i need it do do is colour the cells that dont fit into the if statement red is there anything that i can do?

Hello Kevin,

In your code you are not getting a reference to the actual table cell for the corresponding day:

Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs e = new Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs(currentCell, day,view);

The line above won't automatically set the currentCell object to the table cell for the give date and month view. What you need to do is implement your custom logic in the DayRender event of the calendar and use the DayRenderEventArgs to get hold of the cell for each date.

I hope this information helps.
