Hi I was wondering if anyone has been able to do this:

By default, the Property Grid item is blank (without a date) when clicked to show the calendar with Today's Date. In numerous locations we have property grids that contain a "start date" date item, and "end date" date item.

A client asked if it's possible when entering a start date and an end date in the property grid that the dt picker calendars will not default to today but to the same month/year the user has first selected.

Example: Start Date 11/1/2009, after picking that date the user would then click on the End Date to select 11/3/2009,the calendar will show today, then the user will have to change the year and month to match the start date.

Thanks

Hi,

When you select a propertygrid item the calendar does select the date value of the propertygrid item. I don't know why your calendar shows today's value?! Mine does, strange...

Then in the RequestEdit event you could set the end date as the begin date. (This could be a property setting for the user)

Private Sub wndPropertyGrid_RequestEdit(ByVal Item As XtremePropertyGrid.IPropertyGridItem, Cancel As Boolean)
    Select Case Item.Id
        Case ID_ENDDATE
            Dim propItemDate As PropertyGridItemDate
            Set propItemDate = wndPropertyGrid.FindItem(ID_BEGINDATE)
            wndPropertyGrid.Selected.Value = propItemDate
    End Select
End Sub
