Hi Adam,  
  
Thanks for using Syncfusion product.  
  
In order to customize the day names in navigation calendar, you can use the QueryCellInfo event forCalendarGrid. The Syncfusion.Grid.Windows library should be added as reference in your project. Please refer to the below code example,  
  
Code example  




this.scheduleControl1.Calendar.CalenderGrid.QueryCellInfo += CalenderGrid_QueryCellInfo;  
  
private void CalenderGrid_QueryCellInfo(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs e)  
{  
    if (e.RowIndex == 1)  
    {  
        if (e.ColIndex == 1)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "PO";  
        else if (e.ColIndex == 2)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "W";  
        else if (e.ColIndex == 3)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "S";  
        else if (e.ColIndex == 4)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "CZ";  
        else if (e.ColIndex == 5)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "PT";  
        else if (e.ColIndex == 6)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "S";  
        else if (e.ColIndex == 7)  
            e.Style.CellValue = "NI";  
    }  
}

There is one more thing to do for the solution to be complete.Above piece of code should be called not only when current row index is equal to 1 (e.RowIndex == 1), but also for every eighth row starting from index 1.Otherwise, only top most calendar in navigation panel will be displayed correctly while others calendars below still will be incorrect.

Hi Adam, 
  
Thanks for your update. 
  
Yes. You were right. if you want to change the all visible calendar of the left panel in schedule control, you should use that row index in QueryCellStyleInfo event. For example, if you have two calendar in navigation panel, you could use the below code to change the name of the day, 
  
Code  




this.scheduleControl1.Calendar.CalenderGrid.QueryCellInfo += CalenderGrid_QueryCellInfo; 
  
private void CalenderGrid_QueryCellInfo(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs e) 
{ 
    if(e.RowIndex == 1 || e.RowIndex == 9) 
    { 
        if (e.ColIndex == 1) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "PO"; 
        else if (e.ColIndex == 2) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "W"; 
        else if (e.ColIndex == 3) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "S"; 
        else if (e.ColIndex == 4) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "CZ"; 
        else if (e.ColIndex == 5) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "PT"; 
        else if (e.ColIndex == 6) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "S"; 
        else if (e.ColIndex == 7) 
            e.Style.CellValue = "NI"; 
    } 
}
