Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Editors

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Core

Declaration

C#

public DateTime? MinValue { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property MinValue As Date?

Property Value

Type	Description
Nullable<DateTime>	A DateTime structure which represents the minimum allowed date.

Remarks

A user cannot select a value from the drop-down calendar if it is less than the minimum value. A user can also change the date by typing it in the text box. In this instance, if the new value precedes the minimum allowed value, an error icon is displayed that indicates that the specified value is invalid.

The maximum allowed date is specified using the DateEdit.MaxValue property. To specify the editor’s current value, use the DateEdit.DateTime property.

The DateEdit does not raise the BaseEdit.Validate event if the entered value exceeds the MinValue or DateEdit.MaxValue property.
