Solution 2

Use Format property.

VB

dateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom
dateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy" 'or whatever you want

on screen it will show only month and year but if user clicks to select different month or year it show regular calendar with days. I don't want that.
