The following code is needed to use the calendar and DTP controls.

icex.dwICC = ICC_DATE_CLASSES;You can create the second screen with scrollbars, and then pan a full year.
The controls are physically laid out on dialog boxes to make them easier to position and interact with at design time. In the dialog editor, they are the grey boxes on the dialog boxes. To set specific styles for these controls, open the *.RC file as a text file, find the control you want, and add or delete the style. For example, in the *.RC file, there will be a line that looks like this:
Copy Code | |
---|---|
CONTROL "",IDC_CONTROL_DTS_LONGDATEFORMAT,"SysDateTimePick32", 0x4,0,0,124,12 |
Add a new style next to the "0x4", such as "0x4 | DTM_STYLE". It will be changed by the dialog compiler to the correct hex value, provided the <commctrl.h>file is included. It is included in the resource.hfile in this example.
