Hi there,
I'm looking how to permit my application to select dates inferior to the minvalue allowed by the infragisctics control DateTimeEditor?
I'd like to bind dates that can be located equal to 01/01/0001.
Best regards, Yoann.
There are details as to why WinDateTimeEditor behaves this way in the following thread:http://forums.infragistics.com/forums/p/33521/182541.aspx#182541
You may want to consider our WinCalendarCombo control (class name "UltraCalendarCombo") as an alternative.
I am running into this issue when our offshore team attempted to use English(India), where the default format for min is 01-01-0001. Is there some way this can be managed.
Yoann,
You could certainly just use an UltraMaskedEdit for your editor if you don't need the drop-down functionality. If you do need the drop-down, then there is simply no way to work around this behavior, since the MinDate will always resolve to "1/1/1753" and the calendar will not allow setting below this value anyway.

Thanks for your answer Matt, it's now a little bit clean in my minds.
Unfortunelly, this is an obligation for me to use this control because I need a DateTime mask for keyboard input.Have you an answer to resolve my problem? Changing the component is not a problem, I just need to go to 01/01/0001 and having a mask.
In advance, thank you.
Yoann.
The UltraDateTimeEditor is bound to the same constraints that the .NET MonthCalendar has, which is contrainted to CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.Calendar.MinSupportedDateTime; this amounts to "1/1/1753" in Western calendars. I'm not sure if the UltraCalendarCombo has the same restriction.
