shamsi/persian date picker for vb .net application?

Normally you would do it setting the current culture:

//will NOT WORK on DateTimePicker:
System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture =
    new System.Globalization.CultureInfo(/* the culture you need */);
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = culture;
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = culture;

Unfortunately, it does not work for DateTimePicker. You need to change the International settings system in the level of system to make it work.

Please see this discussion: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/241964/how-to-change-culture-to-a-datetimepicker-or-calendar-control-in-net[^].

I can see only one thing to do: create your own time picker, globalization/localization-friendly one. This is not too easy but quite feasible. Hope you share your code :-).

Sorry about that, please blame Microsoft, not me. :-)
