The C1Calendar control is a fully functional Outlook-style calendar that enables end-users to select the current date or the set of dates to display appointment data in the C1Schedule control. By default, the CalendarDimensions property is set to one and only 1 month is displayed in the control:

Depending on the amount of space available, the C1Calendar control can display one or more months at a time. The number of months available for display is determined by the CalendarDimensions property, which determines the maximum number of months to display in the C1Calendar control, but will only display as many months as will fit into the available space. The following image displays three months at once:

By selecting different ranges in the C1Calendar control at run time, you can change the ViewType property of the C1Schedule control. For more information on the different ranges and available data views, see the C1Calendar Interactivity and Data Views topics.

A functional scheduling application can be created without using the C1Calendar control, but the C1Calendar provides visual navigational capabilities.
