  Is there a way to stop the user being able to manually edit a date but instead are forced to use the calendar drop-down only?

  Thanks - John

  Hello John,

  You can handle the KeyDown event of C1DateEdit and set the SuppressKeyPress property of the KeyEventArgs to true to stop the editing via Keyboard.

  c1DateEdit1.KeyDown += C1DateEdit1_KeyDown;
  
   private void C1DateEdit1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
      e.SuppressKeyPress = true;
    }
  

  Regards,
