I am creating a window that uses a WPF calendar to browse documents created

  • 0

I am creating a window that uses a WPF calendar to browse documents created on specified dates during the month shown. When the calendar changes month, I search a database for all documents created during that month, which I use to create a list of dates during the month that have documents.

In the Calendar control, I want to boldface those dates that have documents, in the same manner that Outlook boldfaces dates that have appointments.

So, here’s my question: How do I boldface a specific date in the Calendar control’s month view? Thanks for your help.

    It turns out that boldfacing is hard-coded in several places, so I changed to date highlighting instead. I wrote a custom control that has a HighlightedDates list; adding a date to the list highlights the date and provides an optional tool tip for the date with whatever content the host app chooses.

    I have written a CodeProject article titled Extending the WPF Calendar. The article includes the control and explains how I built it.
