Display current month details

In MonthCalendarAdv, it is possible to display current Month details and disable selection, navigation for Inactive Month upon mouse selection by handling its event named QueryCellInfo.

//To change the text color of the inactive month
this.monthCalendarAdv1.InactiveMonthColor = Color.Transparent;
//Handles the event to provide custom formating cells.
this.monthCalendarAdv1.DateCellQueryInfo += new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.DateCellQueryInfoEventHandler(monthCalendarAdv1_DateCellQueryInfo);
 
//To disable the date selection while navigation to next or previous month, while selecting the date from current month
void monthCalendarAdv1_DateCellQueryInfo(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.DateCellQueryInfoEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Style.TextColor == this.monthCalendarAdv1.InactiveMonthColor)
        e.Style.Enabled = false;
}

'To change the text color of the inactive month
Me.monthCalendarAdv1.InactiveMonthColor = Color.Transparent
'Handles the event to provide custom formating cells.
AddHandler monthCalendarAdv1.DateCellQueryInfo, AddressOf monthCalendarAdv1_DateCellQueryInfo
 
'To disable the date selection while navigation to next or previous month, while selecting the date from current month
Private Sub monthCalendarAdv1_DateCellQueryInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.DateCellQueryInfoEventArgs)
 If e.Style.TextColor = Me.monthCalendarAdv1.InactiveMonthColor Then
  e.Style.Enabled = False
 End If
End Sub

Note:

The InactiveMonthColor is specified as transparent, to hide text from the cell.
