How to: Select a Range of Dates in the Windows Forms MonthCalendar Control

  • Artikel

An important feature of the Windows Forms MonthCalendar control is that the user can select a range of dates. This feature is an improvement over the date-selection feature of the DateTimePicker control, which only enables the user to select a single date/time value. You can set a range of dates or get a selection range set by the user by using properties of the MonthCalendar control. The following code example demonstrates how to set a selection range.

To select a range of dates

  1. Create DateTime objects that represent the first and last dates in a range.

    Dim projectStart As Date = New DateTime(2001, 2, 13)  
Dim projectEnd As Date = New DateTime(2001, 2, 28)  

    DateTime projectStart = new DateTime(2001, 2, 13);  
DateTime projectEnd = new DateTime(2001, 2, 28);  

    DateTime projectStart = DateTime(2001, 2, 13);  
DateTime projectEnd = DateTime(2001, 2, 28);

  2. Set the SelectionRange property.

    MonthCalendar1.SelectionRange = New SelectionRange(projectStart, projectEnd)  

    monthCalendar1.SelectionRange = new SelectionRange(projectStart, projectEnd);  

    monthCalendar1->SelectionRange = gcnew  
   SelectionRange(projectStart, projectEnd);

    –or–

    Set the SelectionStart and SelectionEnd properties.

    MonthCalendar1.SelectionStart = projectStart  
MonthCalendar1.SelectionEnd = projectEnd  

    monthCalendar1.SelectionStart = projectStart;  
monthCalendar1.SelectionEnd = projectEnd;  

    monthCalendar1->SelectionStart = projectStart;  
monthCalendar1->SelectionEnd = projectEnd;
