DateTimePickerCell CreateCustomCalendarStyleAndFormat()
       {
           DateTimePickerCell dateTimePickerCell1 = new DateTimePickerCell();

           dateTimePickerCell1.Value = DateTime.Now;

           dateTimePickerCell1.Size = new Size(120, 21);

           dateTimePickerCell1.CustomFormat = "yyyy/MM";

           dateTimePickerCell1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;

           dateTimePickerCell1.CalendarFont = new Font(Control.DefaultFont, FontStyle.Bold);

           dateTimePickerCell1.CalendarForeColor = Color.Red;

           dateTimePickerCell1.CalendarMonthBackground = Color.Blue;

           dateTimePickerCell1.CalendarTitleBackColor = Color.Black;

           dateTimePickerCell1.CalendarTitleForeColor = Color.White;

           dateTimePickerCell1.CalendarTrailingForeColor = Color.Yellow;

           dateTimePickerCell1.DropDownAlign = LeftRightAlignment.Right;

           return dateTimePickerCell1;
       }
