Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Sub SetCalendarText( _
   ByVal dayNames() As String, _
   ByVal monthNames() As String, _
   ByVal shortdayNames() As String, _
   ByVal shortmonthNames() As String, _
   ByVal okText As String, _
   ByVal cancelText As String, _
   ByVal currentText As String _
)

'Usage
 
Dim instance As DateTimeCellType
Dim dayNames() As String
Dim monthNames() As String
Dim shortdayNames() As String
Dim shortmonthNames() As String
Dim okText As String
Dim cancelText As String
Dim currentText As String
 
instance.SetCalendarText(dayNames, monthNames, shortdayNames, shortmonthNames, okText, cancelText, currentText)

public void SetCalendarText( 
   string[] dayNames,
   string[] monthNames,
   string[] shortdayNames,
   string[] shortmonthNames,
   string okText,
   string cancelText,
   string currentText
)

Parameters

dayNames: Set of day names
monthNames: Set of month names
shortdayNames: Set of abbreviated day names
shortmonthNames: Set of abbreviated month names
okText: Text for the OK button
cancelText: Text for the Cancel button
currentText: Text for the Today button or Now button

Remarks

The four string arrays for names set the names for the ddd, dddd, MMM and MMMM formats when used in the DateTimeCellType's editor. If any of the four string arrays for names are null, the calendar displays using the values set in the DateTimeCellType's properties. If those are null, the system names are used.

The various text parameters determine the text that appears in the buttons at the bottom of the calendar control. For all but the TimeOnly setting, the buttons appear on the calendar control. The currentText contains the text for the Today button.

For the TimeOnly setting, a clock control appears and the currentText contains the text for the Now button.

Be aware that this method sets the calendar text only for an individual cell, so different cells can have different calendar text within the same Spread component.

For more information on the one-dimensional string array containing the names of the months, refer to MonthNames topic in the Microsoft .NET Framework documentation.

Example

This example sets the text for the calendar.

FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.DateTimeCellType dt = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.DateTimeCellType();
dt.SetCalendarText(new String[] {"Sun", "Mon", "Tues", "Wed", "Thurs", "Fri", "Sat"}, new String[] {"Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr",
"May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sept", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"}, new String[] {"S", "M", "T", "W", "Th", "F", "Sa"}, new String[]
{"J", "F", "M", "A", "M", "J", "J", "A", "S", "O", "N", "D"}, "Finished", "Later", "Now"); dt.SetCalendarFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[0, 0].CellType = dt;

Visual Basic

Dim dt As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.DateTimeCellType
dt.SetCalendarText(New String() {"Sun", "Mon", "Tues", "Wed", "Thurs", "Fri", "Sat"}, New String() {"Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr",
"May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sept", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"}, New String() {"S", "M", "T", "W", "Th", "F", "Sa"}, New String()
{"J", "F", "M", "A", "M", "J", "J", "A", "S", "O", "N", "D"}, "Finished", "Later", "Now")
dt.SetCalendarFormat("MM/dd/yyyy")
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells(0, 0).CellType = dt
