WPF DatePicker: What is the best?

A:

I'm thinking of using this one: Marlon Grech Date Picker.

I haven't used Marlon's, but I have used Kevin Moore's. At the time I used it, there were a number of bugs I had to work around. Other than those issues, it did seem to work well enough.

Kent, thanks for the answer. I opted to insert dates just as strings for now.

Does anyone else find it odd that neither of these controls have simple working demos on the blog post? The whole point of Silverlight is easy deployment, but these authors couldn't take the time to put a demo on their blog? Something fishy about that community...

I do WPF but I wouldn't touch Silverlight with a 100 foot pole. They could put up a ClickOnce app as a demo though.

Note that Scott's answer of WPF Toolkit is a better solution now that it has been released. I've used it with good success.

Also don't forget that it's (the WPF Toolkit) going to be a part of the official .NET base class in version 4.

There is also the WPF Tool Kit which has a DatePicker/Calendar control

(i added emphasis because this is the answer)

I'm using this one - from a brief try it seems to do what I want. And it's the official toolkit, so I'm going with it.

I use this too.
