How can I set my own custom title name for e.g. first day in the week (i.e. on week view instead of 'Monday' I want to set 'Christmas')? Thanks for replying.

You can use: GetCalendarCtrl().m_bFullDateMode = TRUE;

CXTPCalendarDayView* pDayView = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPCalendarDayView, GetCalendarCtrl().GetDayView() );

if (pDayView) { pDayView->SetDayHeaderFormat(_T("Holiday %A, %B %d, %Y")); } - but it give you custom title for DayView or multi-column week view and every day will be Holiday (!). May be in next version we will make something for special title string for different days

Still you can use any combination of date-related C-format (%a %b ...)

But this is static (same for all days) custom text

You can use notification - e.g.

VB Calendar Sample notification handler:
Private Sub CalendarControl_GetItemText(ByVal Params As XtremeCalendarControl.CalendarGetItemTextParams)
.............................................................................................
If Params.Item = xtpCalendarItemText_DayViewDayHeaderRight Or _
           Params.Item = xtpCalendarItemText_WeekViewDayHeaderRight Or _
           Params.Item = xtpCalendarItemText_MonthViewDayHeaderRight _
        Then
        Params.Text = Year(Params.ViewDay.Date) & " - Your happy day"

.............................................................................................
End Sub

you need to add subscription to notification in your Form load function call

CalendarControl.AskItemTextFlags.SetFlag xtpCalendarItemText_DayViewDayHeaderRight

Samething you can use in MFC -

CString CXTPCalendarDayViewDay::GetCaption() {

COleDateTime dt(m_dtDate);

SYSTEMTIME st;

GETASSYSTEMTIME_DT(dt, st);

CString strHeaderFormat = GetView() ? GetView()->GetDayHeaderFormat() : _T("");

CString strResult = CXTPCalendarUtils::GetDateFormat(&st, strHeaderFormat);

if (strHeaderFormat.Find(_T("%")) > -1) //C-format used

strResult = dt.Format(strHeaderFormat);

DWORD dwFlags = XTP_SAFE_GET2(GetView(), GetCalendarControl(), GetAskItemTextFlags(), 0);

if (dwFlags & xtpCalendarItemText_DayViewDayHeader)

{

XTP_CALENDAR_GETITEMTEXT_PARAMS objRequest;

::ZeroMemory(&objRequest, sizeof(objRequest));

objRequest.nItem = (int)xtpCalendarItemText_DayViewDayHeader;

objRequest.pstrText = &strResult;

objRequest.pViewDay = this;

XTP_SAFE_CALL2(GetView(), GetCalendarControl(), SendNotificationAlways(

XTP_NC_CALENDAR_GETITEMTEXT, (WPARAM)&objRequest, 0));

}

return strResult;

}

Just use nofification XTP_NC_CALENDAR_GETITEMTEXT
