Hi,
I am using calander control. I would like to set the formats of the date. if i set mm/dd/yyyy even then i am assigning DateTime it should trim the DateTime and just assign only the preset Date Format which is mm/dd/yyyy

Regard,
Prasanna

Hi Prasanna,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

The DropDownCalendar control offers various pre-defined formats, in which the date-time values can be displayed, by setting the required option to the Format property which represents the date-time format of the control with the options of Long, Short, Time, CustomChar and CustomString. In order to set the date format as MM/dd/yyyy, please refer the code snippet below.

[ASPX]

Format="CustomString"
CustomFormat="MM/dd/yyyy">


For Calendar control, the date format 'MM/dd/yyyy' can be set as,

TextBox1.Text = Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString();

Also please refer the sample files below to achieve this.
