Hi all, I have a need to be able to override the standard .NET 2.0 DateTimePicker control. Principally, I need to be able to adjust the MinDate property to allow the control to go back to dates prior to the adoption of the Gregorian calendar by Great Britain in 1752.
Initially, I'd like to be able to go back to 1582, when Pope Gregory decreed that the new calendar should come into force. At the same time, I'd like to be able to return years in a double- dated fashion for those years between 1582 and 1752. This, to take account of the traditional year in Great Britain running from March 25th to March 24th. Subsequently, I'd like to be able to go back beyond 1582, into the days when the Julian Calendar was still in widespread use. Am I being a bit foolish in using the DateTimePicker as the starting point? Or should I consider developing a class and control from scratch? Any advice and/or help much appreciated.
