I m afraid the DateTimePicker control doesn t have the ability to do those things  It s a pretty basic  and frustrating   control  Your best option may be to find a third-party control that does what you want   For the option of typing the date and time manually  you could build a custom component with a TextBox DateTimePicker combination to accomplish this  and it might work reasonably well  if third-party controls are not an option

Set the Format to Custom and then specify the format   dateTimePicker1 Format   DateTimePickerFormat Custom  dateTimePicker1 CustomFormat    MM dd yyyy hh mm ss       or however you want to lay it out   You could then type in directly the date time   If you use MMM  you ll need to use the numeric value for the month for entry  unless you write some code yourself for that  e g   5 results in May   Don t know about the picker for date and time together   Sounds like a custom control to me

Unfortunately  this is one of the many misnomers in the framework  or at best a violation of SRP    To use the DateTimePicker for times  set the Format property to either Time or Custom  Use Custom if you want to control the format of the time using the CustomFormat property   Then set the ShowUpDown property to true   Although a user may set the date and time together manually  they cannot use the GUI to set both

DateTime Picker can be used to pick both date and time that is why it is called  Date and Time Picker   You can set the  Format  property to  Custom  and set combination of different format specifiers to represent pick date time in different formats in the  Custom Format  property  However if you want to change Date  then the pop-up calendar can be used whereas in case of Time selection  in the same control you are bound to use up down keys to change values    For example a custom format   ddddd  MMMM dd  yyyy hh mm ss tt   will give you a result like this    Thursday  August 20  2009 02 55 23 PM     You can play around with different combinations for format specifiers to suit your need e g MMMM will give  August  whereas MM will give  Aug
