Hi Asif,

I do not know, whether you have a compulsion of using a particular UI element. If not, I would suggest you to use two dropdowns, one for months and the other one for year. You can use Simple Types for Months and Years.

This approach will decrease the coding effort and will give a wide range of date options, without the user clicking for every month.

Hope this helps. If you need some more help, you can get back, I'll be happy to do so.

Cheers!!!

hi Asif

try this

simpletype of Built in type Date .. binded with input field ...

Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(2007, 0, 1);

Date date = new Date(calendar.getTimeInMillis());

SimpleDateFormat f = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");

String formatedDate=f.format(date);

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("the date"+formatedDate);

Final out put will be 01-01-2007

that's u can get only 01-01-2007 all other date fields disabled ...... i hope this code 'll help you ...

hi !

create an event for onselect if you are using dropdown.

then in the for loop get the values with the help of following code

wdContext.currentDDIndexElement().getValue();

and then disable elements .

thanks

Hi Asif

You did not mentioned, which UI element you are using for displaying date fileds. You can disable them by mapping the desired ui element to contextattribute which is of boolean type and according to your requrement you can set that booleantype attribute as true/false, by which the corresponding ui element which is bound will get disabled or enabled.
