These constants specify the calendar type (CALTYPE data type).

CALTYPE Constants

You can use the following CALTYPE constants in combination with any other CALTYPE constants.

Name	Description
CAL_NOUSEROVERRIDE	Use the system default instead of the user's choice.
CAL_RETURN_GENITIVE_NAMES	Return the genitive case names of months, which are the names that are used when the month names are combined with other items. For example, in Ukrainian the first month of the year is written "Січень" when the month is named alone. However, when the month name is used with a date, for example, January 5th, the genitive form of the name is used, "5 січня."
CAL_RETURN_NUMBER	Return results as a number instead of a string. This is valid only in combination with CALTYPE constants that begin with CAL_I.
CAL_USE_CP_ACP	Use the ANSI code page (ACP) instead of the locale code page for string translation. This is only relevant for ANSI versions of functions, for example, EnumCalendarInfoA .

The following CALTYPE constants are mutually exclusive and cannot be used in combination with each other in a function call.
