DateTimePicker CustomFormat Hours 0-23

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

If I use 'hh:mm' as CustomFormat the DateTimePicker is in AM/PM mode but I like the 23 hour mode.
I like to enter and display 23:59 and not 11:59 PM or AM.

The format function in VB6 works like this:

(scroll down to "Formatting Symbols")
or take a look at vb6 help.

It would be nice if the CustomFormat of the DateTimePicker would accept the same formatting syntax.
