CDateTimeCtrl

[Djibril]

Do you know how to change the background color of a CDateTimeCtrl control ? Thanks. Where there is a WISH, there is a WILL.

Have you tried CDateTimeCtrl::SetMonthCalColor? It allows great flexibility on which colors you can change. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Silly me. I took a look at the help on CDateTimeCtrl but I did not see this method. Thank you. That should do the job. I try it right away. Thanks. Where there is a WISH, there is a WILL.

Too bad. This is not really what I needed. SetMonthCalColor() only applies to the calendar that pops up when you click on the combo box'x arrow. What I want to change is the background color of the EditCtrl-like control of the CDateTimeCtrl. Thanks anyways. Where there is a WISH, there is a WILL.

Maybe (not sure) this color can be changed the same way the background color of other controls (CStatics, CEdits) is. Check §4.9 of Mike Dunn's C++ FAQ. Good luck! Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo
