Value Of DatetimePicker Not Changes With System Date

[maheshwag]

I have a datetimepciker and set the time as below:

dateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "hh:mm:tt";

But it's not changes it's time with system time. it's just showing time like sticky it's value is not changing with system time.

how to set it with keeping changes time with system time?.

Did you assign

dateTimePicker1.Value

somewhere? If not, try to do it in dateTimePicker1 Load event. Maybe your CustomFormat is interferring somehow?

arie,

sorry but there is no datetimepicker_ load event at system. and I think the value already assigned by custom but problem is that it is not keep changes with system.

Sorry, I ment Form_Load event (to initialize the Value), my mistake :(

As far as I understand it (here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xdtd4tst.aspx is my source of "understanding" )you have to update the Value yourself if you want it changing with system time. I think you may use a Timer, or datetimepicker_ Enter event (there is one, I checked properly this time :)), because it won't change on its own after it's created.
