Please provide some code sample...

Not clear. A DateTimePicker is used for picking a time, not for saving. :-)

"Name or its value"? Sounds like you have no clue what are main programming entities: types, objects (instances), references, variables, names... I would suggest you learn it all on some more simple examples, without any UI...

So you are working with windows app?

Right Click on DateTime Picker go to properties go to name, then try to write the code with that name, you can face some cross thread access problem if you trying to access that from other than main thread, then use delegates or MethodInvoke delegate

Some code example is here?
pleas take a look

private void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure! you want to save changes of prayer timings", "Prayer Timings", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question);
           if (dr == DialogResult.Yes)
           {
               btnModify.Visible = true;
               btnSave.Visible = false;
               if(!Directory.Exists(Application.StartupPath + "\\PrayerTimings"))
                   Directory.CreateDirectory(Application.StartupPath + "\\PrayerTimings");
               StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(Application.StartupPath + "PrayerTimings");
               string strFajar = dtPickerFajar.value?????       //here i want to access value of dtPickerFajar values which is not accessable
               string strZohar = dtPickerZohar.value?????         //5 more same not accessable
                   //
