Well that doesn't make any sense, you said "Note I make my date timepicker as custom control" so you must at least have the code for your date timepicker.
As for your functionality, I think it will be unsuable (though it isn't exactly clear what you want), lets say a user types 2011, how are you going to tell if they mean the year, or [accidently] type 20 (a day), and then correct it to 11. It's technically possible, but I doubt it will be usuable.
Please can you clarify your question, and let us know what you have done so far. Just asking for something without showing effort on your part isn't going to get you very far.
