Property Value

Type	Default	Description
DefaultBoolean	Default	A DefaultBoolean enumeration value that specifies whether today’s date is highlighted in the editor’s drop-down.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

When the HighlightTodayCell property is set to Default or True, today’s date is automatically highlighted in the editor’s drop-down. See the figure below.

Set this property to False to prevent today’s date from being highlighted.

To specify whether today’s date is highlighted when selected, or belongs to a selected range of dates, use the RepositoryItemDateEdit.HighlightTodayCellWhenSelected property.
