When I click on the date in MonthCalendar ,

How can I display the selected adte in textbox which is in the MAIN form?

Kindly assist..Its urgent......

[sandeepparekh9]

can u make it more clear ...? its seems a little vague..

how are you getting the date in Main form textbox

[eileenc87]

In my Main form, I put a button which will link to another form which is monthcalendar function when i cliked on the button.

So, what I want is.

I click on the date in monthcalendar , the monthcalendar form will close and the date value will be displayed in the textbox in Main form.

I wish my clarification clear for your understanding?

See if this helps.

Public Class Form2

    Private Sub Form2_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
        Form1.TextBox1.Text = MonthCalendar1.SelectionStart.ToShortDateString  '// .SelectionStart gets the first selected Date.
    End Sub
End Class

ok i understand.. try the way CODEORDER showed you

My apologies, I did not notice the "form will close" from your previous reply. Use the DateSelected event instead of the FormClosing.

Private Sub MonthCalendar1_DateSelected(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DateRangeEventArgs) Handles MonthCalendar1.DateSelected
        Form1.TextBox1.Text = MonthCalendar1.SelectionStart.ToShortDateString  '// .SelectionStart gets the first selected Date.
        Me.Close() '// close Form after selecting Date.
    End Sub

Coderorder,

The codes works 50%. Yes, the MonthCalendar form is close, but the selected date is not display in textbox?

Is there any missing codes?

        Me.Close() '// close Form after selecting Date.
    End Sub

Codeorder's Solution works fine

Hi Codeorder,

It gave me the same output.. When I clicked on the date, yes the form closed but the selected date is not display in textbox...

hmmmmm......

[codeorder]

Did you change Form1 to your Form's.Name and the same for the TextBox?
.If you still have issues, try it in a new project.
..Could be something in your code that is blocking the value being sent from your MonthCalendar to your Main Form's TextBox.

[eileenc87]

yes, I have changed everything based on my own declaration...

What should be the possiblity of blocking the value to pass to main form?

Kindly assist me on this...
