Changing a time period in a Calendar, Organizer or Scheduler control

To change the start date of a selected time period, specify the start date (StartDate property) and the end date (EndDate property). When the start date changes:
  • the end date is automatically deselected.
  • the end date has to be selected (programmatically or by clicking a control date).
To change the end date of a selected time period, simply use the EndDate property: the time period changes automatically.

Special cases

  • The start date of a time period can be identified and changed with the StartDate property.
  • The StartDate property returns the start date of the time period in chronological order. Therefore, if the end date is selected before the start date, the StartDate property returns the last selected date.
  • AndroidiPhone/iPadMac Catalyst In a Scheduler control, the EndDate property can only be used to get the end date of the time period. The date cannot be changed.
