Setting current date as default date in the datetimepicklist Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi,

I have a requirement to default the date as current date in new mode and get the date from DB in edit mode. So i used the following code but it doesnt work.

var bg = new TypedWebEntityBindingGenerator<ICMAWSNBD>(BindingSource);

if (this.EntityContext.EntityID.ToString().ToUpper() == "INSERT")
{
this.dteDateRequested.DateTimeValue = DateTime.Now;
this.dteDateRequested.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();
bg.AddBinding(e => e.DateRequested, dteDateRequested, dte => dte.DateTimeValue);
}

Please help me to resolve this. Thanks in advance.

What is that code? Strange looking to me.

Set the date on the Entity not the form if in Insert mode. Otherwise dont set it all. So if contact (onload of insert contact):

_entity.DateRequested = System.DateTime.Now;

If the field is bound, as it should be, it will always get the data from the DB - you would not need to do that in code...
