Parameters
dwStyle
Specifies the combination of Windows styles applied to the month calendar control. See Month Calendar Control Styles in the Windows SDK for more information about the styles.rect
A reference to a RECT structure. Contains the position and size of the month calendar control.pt
A reference to a POINT structure that identifies the location of the month calendar control.pParentWnd
A pointer to a CWnd object that is the parent window of the month calendar control. It must not be NULL.nID
Specifies the month calendar control's control ID.
Return Value
Nonzero if initialization was successful; otherwise 0.
Remarks
Create a month calendar control in two steps:
Call CMonthCalCtrl to construct a CMonthCalCtrl object.
Call this member function, which creates a month calendar control and attaches it to the CMonthCalCtrl object.
When you call Create, the common controls are initialized. The version of Create you call determines how it is sized:
To have MFC automatically size the control to one month, call the override that uses the pt parameter.
To size the control yourself, call the override of this function that uses the rect parameter.
Example
// Given two member objects m_calCtrl1 and m_calCtrl2, we can
// create them in one of two ways.
// Providing a point has the control with its top-left corner
// at that point and sized automatically to show one month
// page.
CPoint pt(10, 10);
VERIFY(m_calCtrl1.Create(WS_TABSTOP | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE |
WS_BORDER | MCS_DAYSTATE, pt, this, IDC_MONTHCALCTRL1));
// Providing a rectangle lets us completely control the size.
// The control will paint as many complete month pages in the
// control's area as possible.
CRect rect(300, 100, 470, 200);
VERIFY(m_calCtrl2.Create(WS_TABSTOP | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE |
WS_BORDER | MCS_MULTISELECT, rect, this, IDC_MONTHCALCTRL2));
