You can use a drop-down calendar that is similar to the DatePicker control in EditMask controls that have a Date or DateTime edit mask. The user can choose to edit the date in the control or to select a date from a drop-down calendar. The range for years in Windows applications is 1753 to 3000.
To specify that an EditMask control use a drop-down calendar to display and set dates, select the Drop-down Calendar check box on the Mask page in the Properties view. You can set display properties for the calendar on the Calendar page. Users navigate and select dates within the calendar as they do in the calendar in a DatePicker control.
For a description of the DropDownCalendar property, see DropDownCalendar in the chapter on properties in Objects and Controls.
