How It Saves Your Time

It automatically preselects the current month.
Compatible with UpdatePanel.

Sample 1: Switching the Language

You have two options for choosing the language:

Change the Culture in your Page declaration:

<%@ Page Language="C#" … Culture="en-US" %>

Set the Culture property of MonthPicker control:
```
MonthPicker1.Culture = "en-US";
```

Sample 2: SqlDataSource and GridView Integration

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" 
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:MonthPicker %>" 
SelectCommand="SELECT [Id], [Name], [Start] FROM [events] _
		WHERE ([Start] >= @Start) AND ([Start] < @End)"> 
    <SelectParameters> 
        <asp:ControlParameter 
    ControlID="MonthPicker1" PropertyName="StartDate"
            Name="Start" Type="DateTime" /> 
        <asp:ControlParameter 
        ControlID="MonthPicker1" PropertyName="EndDate"
            Name="End" Type="DateTime" /> 
    </SelectParameters> 
</asp:SqlDataSource>
