Remarks

Use the TodaysDate property to determine today's date. You can also use this property to programmatically set the value for today's date on the Calendar control. This property is set using a System.DateTime object.

Note

This date might need to be adjusted to accommodate users who are in a different time zone.

The appearance of the date specified by the TodaysDate property can be customized by using the TodayDayStyle property.

Note

If the VisibleDate property is not set, the date specified by the TodaysDate property determines which month is displayed in the Calendar control.
