CMonthCalCtrl::SetCurSel

Sets the currently selected date for a month calendar control.

BOOL SetCurSel( 
   const COleDateTime& refDateTime  
); 
BOOL SetCurSel( 
   const CTime& refDateTime  
); 
BOOL SetCurSel( 
   const LPSYSTEMTIME pDateTime  
);

Parameters

  • refDateTime
    A reference to a COleDateTime or CTime object indicating the currently-selected month calendar control.

  • pDateTime
    Pointer to a SYSTEMTIME structure that contains the date to be set as the current selection.

Return Value

Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

This member function implements the behavior of the Win32 message MCM_SETCURSEL, as described in the Windows SDK. In MFC's implementation of SetCurSel, you can specify a COleDateTime usage, a CTime usage, or a SYSTEMTIME structure usage.

Example

void CMonthCalDlg::OnBnClickedCurselbutton()
{
   // All of these calls set the current selection to March 15, 1998. 

   // with a COleDateTime
   COleDateTime dt1(1998, 3, 15, 0, 0, 0);
   m_calCtrl1.SetCurSel(dt1);

   // with a CTime
   CTime dt2(1998, 3, 15, 0, 0, 0);
   m_calCtrl1.SetCurSel(dt2);

   // with a SYSTEMTIME structure

   SYSTEMTIME sysTime;

   // set everything to zero
   memset(&sysTime, 0, sizeof(sysTime));

   // except for the date we want
   sysTime.wYear = 1998;
   sysTime.wMonth = 3;
   sysTime.wDay = 15;

   m_calCtrl1.SetCurSel(&sysTime);
}
