    It's a VERY weird thing... supposedly, you can use .CalendarMonthBackground or .CalendarTitleBackColor, but I can't get it to work. The properties are in the property list, they're in the docs too, but it doesn't seem to work at all.

    Yes, weird. It seems that MS in their wisdom haven't filled in these properties (excuse the silly pun! groan).

    There is code here at SO to achieve this, but it is in C# and needs translation; but it requires creating a custom control that extends DateTimePicker.

    
const int WM_ERASEBKGND = 0x14;   protected override void WndProc(ref System.Windows.Forms.Message m) {      if(m.Msg == WM_ERASEBKGND)      {        Graphics g = Graphics.FromHdc(m.WParam);        g.FillRectangle(new SolidBrush(_backColor), ClientRectangle);        g.Dispose();        return;      }        base.WndProc(ref m); }

    Starting with Windows Vista and depending on the theme, setting this property might not change the appearance of the calendar. For example, if Windows is set to use the Aero theme, setting this property has no effect. This is because an updated version of the calendar is rendered with an appearance that is derived at run time from the current operating system theme. If you want to use this property and enable the earlier version of the calendar, you can disable visual styles for your application. Disabling visual styles might affect the appearance and behavior of other controls in your application. To disable visual styles in Visual Basic, open the Project Designer and uncheck the Enable XP visual styles check box. To disable visual styles in C#, open Program.cs and comment out Application.EnableVisualStyles();

    Doesn't solve your problem but it explains why those properties seem to have no affect. Unless you want everything to have that old ugly Win 98 look and feel :(

    Well, I have it translated (thanks to the folks at developerfusion.com...
    
 Const WM_ERASEBKGND As Integer = &H14      Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As System.Windows.Forms.Message)         If m.Msg = WM_ERASEBKGND Then             Dim g As Graphics = Graphics.FromHdc(m.WParam)             g.FillRectangle(New SolidBrush(Color.AliceBlue), ClientRectangle)             g.Dispose()             Return         End If          MyBase.WndProc(m)     End Sub 

    This sets the BackColor of the form itself, so if anyone knows offhand, how to use this to extend another control, we have a workaround.
