Hello All,

I want to limit the calendarextender views. I want the end-user to only be able to choose month/year no days.There's an articale for C# but I want to be able to set the CalendarExtender to have 3 modes in VB like this article shows. (Ive never modified the toolkit project, need to learn.)

Anyone know the conversion to VB? Thanks!

Hi,

You can modify the original behavior.js to achieve it.

Please go to CalendarBehavior.js in AjaxControlToolkit original project.  In _cell_onclick function, please use

            case "month":
                if (target.month == visibleDate.getMonth()) {
                    this._switchMode("days");
                } else {
                    this._visibleDate = target.date;
                    this.set_selectedDate(target.date);
                    this._switchMonth(target.date);
                    this._blur.post(true);
                    this.raiseDateSelectionChanged();
                }
                break;

instead of

            case "month":
                if (target.month == visibleDate.getMonth()) {
                    this._switchMode("days");
                } else {
                    this._visibleDate = target.date;
                    this._switchMode("days");
                }
                break;

And then please rebuild the project and add it as reference again. And you can use event "OnClientDateSelectionChanged" to define the value of TextBox after you choose the date from calendar.

To convert C# to VB.Net, you can this tool: http://www.codechanger.com/

Thank you very much. One question...Can I recompile this as another calendar? or can it only compile-over the original?

And how do I recompile it at all?.. never done mods to the toolkit before.

Hi,

If you modify the original file, you need build it again and add the new dll as reference. This is the easiest way.

You can also inherit the behavior to make a new Extender control.
