In a database application Date data type handling is a bit difficult as compared to other data types and getting input by keyboard is required some extra efforts.Common solution to this problem is the DateTimePicker control provided by Microsoft.Unfortunately DateTimePicker is not best suited for fast data entry via keyboard that is always required in a database driven applications. I have got several complains from end users that he don’t want to use mouse for date selection or when entering date in DateTimePicker via keyboard require extra keys has to be pressed from moving cursor from one day part to next and so on. This is the motivation behind the development of a new DateTimePicker, which will enable users to enter data fast and in alternate ways either by keyboard or by mouse you can find my article and source for Date Control at www.codeproject.com.
