Remarks

Use this property to specify the style for the days in the displayed month.

Note

If you do not specify a different style for the selected date, weekend dates, dates not in the currently displayed month, or today's date, these dates will also be displayed using the style specified by the DayStyle property. Use the SelectedDayStyle, WeekendDayStyle, OtherMonthDayStyle, and TodayDayStyle properties to specify alternative styles for these dates.

For more information on the different style properties that can be controlled, see TableItemStyle.
