asp.net calendar enhancement

Marlene · Marlene

I was hoping that the available web control calendar
would be the same except have the month and year as drop
down boxes so that the user can see the calendar and jump
to the date they are looking for at the same time.

I hope this makes more sense.

Not sure how you intend to get input from the user but here's a sample
that allows selection from a listbox.

Drop the following code and codebehind into an ASPX page named
CustCal.
Set the Default namespace of the project to CSWeb.
Give it a try, nothing that this sample only does future navigation

(Is the CN tower in the clouds today?)
