Description
Use the SetSelection action to select one or several dates in the month calendar control. If the control does not support multi-selection, the action selects only one date - the date specified by the First parameter. If the month calendar control supports multi-selection, SetSelection selects the specified range of dates in the calendar.

View Mode

Parameters
The method has the following parameters:
First
Specifies the first date of the range to be selected if the control supports multi-selection. Otherwise this parameter specifies the date to be selected.
Last
Specifies the last date of the range to be selected. If the control does not support multi-selection, Last is ignored.
Result Value
None.
Remarks
If Last is omitted, SetSelection modifies the selected range. After calling to SetSelection, wDate specifies the earliest date in the range, wEndDate - the latest date.
If First or Last is less than wMinDate or greater than wMaxDate, the selected range is not changed. The range is also not changed if the specified range is wider than the maximum range set for the control.
