Hi,

I have a sharepoint datetimecontrol which i am trying to get the date to a datetime field.

Below is the cs code used:

DateTimeControl DtDateRequired = new DateTimeControl();
DateTime RequiredDate = Convert.ToDateTime(((TextBox)(DtDateRequired.Controls[0])).Text);
//ObjectOrder.DateRequired  is a DateTime Property
ObjectOrder.DateRequired = RequiredDate;

In visualwebpart ascx, i have:

 <SharePoint:DateTimeControl ID="DtDateRequired" DateOnly="true" runat="server" />

In the below line, i am getting the error:

DateTime RequiredDate = Convert.ToDateTime(((TextBox)(DtDateRequired.Controls[0])).Text);

How to fix this?

Thanks

Please refer the below post to work with DateTimeControl

You may have to use "SelectedDate" property.
