Hello Hadoop,

Its easy to validate datetimepicker control

Sol 1: Set max date of both the controls to current date on form load event
As
dtp_fromdate.MaxDate = DateTime.Now;
dtp_todate.MaxDate = DateTime.Now;
so no one can select greater date from Today.

Sol 2: Simply check the condition
dtp_fromdate.Value < dtp_todate.Value

If its work please accept the reply

With Thanks

Hi Hadoop,

Please try this code:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DateTime fromdate = Convert.ToDateTime(dateTimePicker1.Text);
DateTime todate1 = Convert.ToDateTime(dateTimePicker2.Text);
DateTime today = Convert.ToDateTime(DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString());
if ((today == fromdate) && (today == todate1))
{
MessageBox.Show("From Date and To Date are equal");
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Please check From Date/To Date");
}
}

Thanks.

Hi,

In order to validate dates please follow below steps:

1. First collect values from two datepickers using jQuery($("#startDateId").text())

2. After collecting values convert those values to Date using javascript function like:
var startDate = new Date('07-07-2015');

3. Once you converted those values to date, try to compare them as per logic(should not be greater than today's note)

If you have any query please reply me here.

Thanks.
