Hi,
I have a RadDateTimePicker.. I want to edit date format in it.. And I am editing it like the code below;

    
             <telerik:RadDateTimePicker  AutoPostBackControl="Both" ID="RadTimePicker1" runat="server"> 
        
                                    <DateInput DisplayDateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy" DateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy"></DateInput>  
        
                                    <TimePopupButton Visible="false" /> 
        
                             </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>

When my dateformat is "dd/MM/yyyy" (like the code above) it is still showing time part...
But when I change dateformat and displaydateformat to "MM/dd/yyyy" it hides the time part... It works fine..

But I want to use "dd/MM/yyyy"..

Help please?

Why are you using a RadDateTimePicker if you don't want to show the time part and are hiding the TimePopupButton? I would suggest using the RadDatePicker instead.

Because I will be using time part based on users choice....

I have found the solution....

This does not work;

    
            <telerik:RadDateTimePicker  AutoPostBackControl="Both" ID="RadTimePicker1" runat="server">  
        
                                    <DateInput DisplayDateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy" DateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy"></DateInput>   
        
                                    <TimePopupButton Visible="false" />  
        
                             </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>

But this works;

    
            <telerik:RadDateTimePicker  AutoPostBackControl="Both" ID="RadTimePicker1" runat="server">  
        
                                    <DateInput DisplayDateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy " DateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy"></DateInput>   
        
                                    <TimePopupButton Visible="false" />  
        
                             </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>

As you can see, the only difference is second one has 'space' at the end of DisplayDateFormat...

Hi,

I have the same problem, and with the solution that you give, when the picker gets the focus, the time appears again.

I think it could be an issue, because if I use any other dateformat, it works fine.

I hope anyone from Telerik can tell us something.

Here's a code snippet that works for me. Just add two single quotes to the end of the date time format and the time should now be invisible when out of focus and in focus.

uiDateTimePicker.DateInput.DisplayDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy''";
uiDateTimePicker.DateInput.DateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy''";
