Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString();

Remarks
Typically, you use this property together with the SelectionMode property to determine the selected date of a Calendar control. To do this, set the SelectionMode property to Day - this setting allows only a single date selection from the Calendar control.
Browsing to the next or previous month will not update this property.
This property has the same functionality as the ASP.NET Calendar.SelectedDate property.
