Raddatetimepicker copy & paste

[Dra Graca Melo]

I'me using Raddatetimepicker, but users can't copy and paste values inside it.

Can you tell me why?

Thank you.

Hello Dra Graca Melo ,

This behavior is not is not part of the standard RadDateTimePicker, or either the standard Microsoft DateTimePicker for that matter, but you can use something like this:

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Telerik.WinControls.UI;

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    private RadDateTimePicker radDateTimePicker1;

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        radDateTimePicker1 = new RadDateTimePicker();
        radDateTimePicker1.Dock = DockStyle.Top;
        this.Controls.Add(radDateTimePicker1);

        radDateTimePicker1.Value = DateTime.Now;
    }

    protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnLoad(e);

        var textBox = new RadTextBox();
        textBox.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();
        this.Controls.Add(textBox);
        textBox.Dock = DockStyle.Bottom;

        radDateTimePicker1.KeyUp += new KeyEventHandler(radDateTimePicker1_KeyUp);
    }

    void radDateTimePicker1_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
        {
            if (e.KeyCode == Keys.V)
            {
                DateTime date;

                DateTime.TryParse(Clipboard.GetText(), out date);
                if (date != null)
                {
                    radDateTimePicker1.Value = date;
                }
            }
            else
            {
                if (e.KeyCode == Keys.C)
                {
                    Clipboard.SetText(radDateTimePicker1.Value.ToString(), TextDataFormat.UnicodeText);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps, if you have any other questions or comments, please let me know,
