Hello Vinoth,

Note that you could not set 00/00/00 in the DateInput control as it expect valid dates to be entered. RadDateInput assists the user in date and time entry by accepting various date and time formats and tries to recognize them and convert them into valid dates. The above mentioned value is not a valid date. However you could set nay valid date on focus of the control using the following:

<script type="text/javascript">
        function Focus() {

            var dateInput = $find("<%= RadDateInput1.ClientID %>");
            dateInput.set_value("09/10/2011");
        }

    </script>


<telerik:RadDateInput ID="RadDateInput1" ClientEvents-OnFocus="Focus" DateFormat="MM/dd/yyyy" runat="server"></telerik:RadDateInput>

I hope this helps.
