Week number for a given date

[Alberto]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to get an easy way to obtain the Week Number for a given date. I have found the following GetWeekNumber function but it is not the same number that RadCalendar displays.

 

public static int GetWeekNumber(DateTime dtPassed)

 

{

 

 

CultureInfo ciCurr = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture;

 

 

 

int weekNum = ciCurr.Calendar.GetWeekOfYear(dtPassed, CalendarWeekRule.FirstFourDayWeek, DayOfWeek.Monday);

 

 

 

return weekNum;

 

}

 

 

 

Does anyone know how to retrieve the Week number display in the Rad Calendar?

also,

Does anyone know how to select a week based on a Week number  in the Rad Calendar?

 

Your response to this thread would be excellent.

 

Regards,

 

Alberto

Hi Alberto,

RadCalendar by default uses CalendarWeekRule.FirstDay, that's why you get a different week number.

Either modify your GetWeekNumber method, or make RadCalendar use CalendarWeekRule.FirstFourDayWeek like this:

Since the control does not provide an API method to select all dates from a given week, you will have to do this manually.

All the best,
