Display a Calendar and/or allow the user to select a date.

With a Calendar widget, dates are presented to the user one month at a time. Additional information and decorations can be added to the Calendar by using the enumeration with the property. Days can be highlighted on the Calendar with or . The following example shows a method that creates a simple Calendar displaying day names, headings and week numbers.


// Create a calendar with some simple display options
public Calendar CreateCalendar ()
{
    Calendar cal = new Calendar ();
    cal.DisplayOptions = CalendarDisplayOptions.ShowHeading  | 
                         CalendarDisplayOptions.ShowDayNames | 
                         CalendarDisplayOptions.ShowWeekNumbers;
    cal.DaySelected += new EventHandler(HandleDaySelected);
    return cal;
}

The following example shows a typical event handler that outputs the date when one is selected.


// Typical event handler for capturing the selected date
void HandleDaySelected (object obj, EventArgs args)
{
    Calendar activatedCalendar = (Calendar) obj;
    Console.WriteLine (activatedCalendar.GetDate ().ToString ("yyyy/MM/dd"));
}
