RadDateTimePicker Calendar

[Martin]

Hello,

I am trying to set SpecialDays on the Calendar element within the DateTimePicker but I cannot see how to obtain a reference to the Calendar itself. I see CalendarLocation and CalendarSize but no reference to the actual Calendar, even if I look in the Controls collection.

Thanks for your help

Hi, 

There is a simple API to set Special days. Please have a look at this documentation which should help. 

There is also an additional forum post here about removing special days.

Let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks for your quick response to my post but I was referring to the DateTimePicker control, there is no way I can see to reference the Calendar within it. If I had a reference to the Calendar then yes, I could set the special days as you suggest.

Hope that helps

And here is an example of setting Special days..

Private Sub RadDateTimePicker1_Opened(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadDateTimePicker1.Opened
    Dim dtcalendar As RadDateTimePickerCalendar = DirectCast(Me.RadDateTimePicker1.DateTimePickerElement.GetCurrentBehavior(), RadDateTimePickerCalendar)
    Dim calendar As RadCalendar = dtcalendar.Calendar
    calendar.SpecialDays.Add(New RadCalendarDay(New Date(2010, 11, 10)))
End Sub

Let me know if you need more help

Richard - Do you happen to know if the samething be accomplished, or is there an equivalent for this, using the ASP.NET AJAX RadDateTimePicker? Please see my post at:  http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/calendar/raddatetimepickercalendar-available-for-asp-net-ajax.aspx. Thanks.

Hi Matt,

Sorry, I don't know. I haven't used the ASP.NET controls for some time now. Best to ask in the ASP.NET forum where teh experts for that live.
Apologies I can't be of more help
