Databind on Date AND Time?

cmay posted on Wednesday, June 14, 2006

Is there a way to databind with a SmartDate so that people can update the date AND the time, aside from giving them a textbox to type out the whole thing e.g. "6/14/2006 2:04 PM"?

I want to use the calendar control, but maybe that isn't an option.

In your public get accessor, set the return value to the format you want:
get{
     return _mySmartDateField.Date.ToShortDateString() + " "  + _mySmartDateField.Date.ToLongTimeString();
}

Or however you want it formatted. The set remains the same and includes the time you're looking to include.

Alternatively you can set the Format property = "G".
