public enum DayNameFormat

public enum class DayNameFormat

type DayNameFormat

Members

	Member name	Description
	Full	The days of the week displayed in full format. For example, Monday.
	Short	The days of the week displayed in abbreviated format. For example, Mon represents Monday.
	FirstLetter	The days of the week displayed with just the first letter. For example, M represents Monday.
	FirstTwoLetters	The days of the week displayed with just the first two letters. For example, Mo represents Monday.
	Shortest	The days of the week displayed in the shortest abbreviation format possible for the current culture.

Remarks

The DayNameFormat enumeration represents the display formats for the days of the week in a Calendar control.

Note
In some cultures, DayNameFormat.FirstLetter and DayNameFormat.FirstTwoLetter display identical values for one or more days of the week. In these cultures, consider using DayNameFormat.Shortest, which displays the shortest abbreviation possible without using identical abbreviations.
