Quick Start

This quick start demonstrates how to create a WinForms application, add the DateRangeEdit control, and configure date range selection.

Add the DateRangeEdit Control

1. Create a Windows Forms application in Visual Studio.

2. Add the following assemblies to the project:

   • C1.Win.Calendar

   • C1.Win.Input

   • C1.Win

3. Drag the DateRangeEdit control from the Toolbox onto the form.

4. Set the control name to dateRangeEdit, or initialize the control in code:

C1DateRangeEdit dateRangeEdit = new C1DateRangeEdit();

Configure the Control

Set the Control Size and Location

/ Set DateRangeEdit size and location
dateRangeEdit.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(180, 21);
dateRangeEdit.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(330, 126);

Set Minimum and Maximum Selectable Dates

// Set minimum and maximum date range
dateRangeEdit.MinValue = new DateTime(2024, 01, 01);
dateRangeEdit.MaxValue = new DateTime(2024, 01, 31);

Enable Predefined Ranges

dateRangeEdit.CalendarRangeSettings.ShowPredefinedRanges = true;

Limit the Selection Range

dateRangeEdit.Calendar.MaxSelectionCount = 7;

Build and Run the Project

1. Select Build > Build Solution.

2. Press F5 to run the application.
