[sakhi kul]

Plz help

First thing, go to your toolbox and Add a Calender control , set the visibility to false, and add a textbox where there value will be passed too and a link button to invoke the calender. in the click event of your link button make the visibility of the calender to be true and when a user clicks the Calender , in the Calenders selected event write a code to take the selected date to the textbox and after that a code to change the visibility of the calender control to false.

Hope this helps.

hi..

vuyiswamb's method is right. you can even use this method.

take your calender control on a different form. and on event,say button click event,call the form by Javascript. Following is the code for the same.

protected void btnCalShow_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
     
string str="<Script> window.open('form2.aspx','mywinodw','height=300,width=300') </script>";
Response.Write(str)
    }

on form2.aspx, place your calender control & set the selected value in the session so that it will be accessible in your main form. you can even set the properties like menubar,statusbar,resizable etc of the form in the same line.

hope this will help you.

u can try to use ASP AJAX

[carobee]

DateTime date = Convert.ToDateTime(txtdate.Text);
        if(date>DateTime.Now)
        txtEnteredDate.Text = "Selected date is greater";

Hope this helps

i hope your requirement was to translate the date captured in string datetime.

P.S Mark the thread as solved if your query is resolved

Apart from ASP.NET calendar control, you can also try Ajax Calender Extender that can be attached to any ASP.NET TextBox control.

Try this link.
