DateTimePick Question

[Mr. B]

How can one (if it's possible) change the date in DateTimePicker via code?

Extracting it is easy enough...
Dim MyDate As Date
Dim MyMonth As String
MyDate = DateTimePicker1.Value.Date

But I'd like to be able to click a Button (one of several) and add or subtract
a day or more via the button.

Possible without changing the PC system date?

Thanks

DateTimePicker1.Value = DateTimePicker1.Value.AddDays(-3)

Just set the 'Value' property (sample taken from MSDN library):

\\\
Public Sub New()
' Create a new DateTimePicker
Dim dateTimePicker1 As New DateTimePicker()
Controls.AddRange(New Control() {dateTimePicker1})
MessageBox.Show(dateTimePicker1.Value.ToString())

dateTimePicker1.Value = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1)
MessageBox.Show(dateTimePicker1.Value.ToString())
End Sub
///

DateTimePicker1.Value = DateTimePicker1.Value.AddDays(-3)

Argh! Sometimes I just look for the hard way... Thanks!

Hmmm... Thanks! Armins seems simple vs. yours. However, I'll try them both
and see what happens in my situation requirements.

Many thanks!

It's the same solution... setting the 'Value' property to a 'DateTime'.
