How to change FirstDayOfWeek?

[bojan.pikl]

Hi, I am making a calendar. It is costum made and I would like to have
the ability to choose the first day (Monday or Sunday). I know for the
firstDayOfWeek, but I can't change it. What should I do?

Why can't you change it? The FirstDayOfWeek property is writable as far as I
can tell

No one knows?

if(day=="Monday")
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek=DayOfWeek.Monday;
else
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek=DayOfWeek.Sunday;

I tried this and it does not work. Should I do something else?

using System.Globalization;
....
CultureInfo culture = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Clone();
CultureInfo uiculture = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Clone();
if (day == "Monday")
{
culture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday;
uiculture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday;
}
else
{
culture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Sunday;
uiculture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Sunday;
}
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = culture;
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = uiculture;

Please include the context next time so we know what you're responding to

In my last post in this thread I posted the following code:

using System.Globalization;
....
CultureInfo culture = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Clone();
CultureInfo uiculture = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Clone();
if (day == "Monday")
{
culture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday;
uiculture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday;
}
else
{
culture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Sunday;
uiculture.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Sunday;
}

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = culture;
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = uiculture;

Is this not working? How is it not working? What results are you getting?
What results are you expecting?
