' through 4/18/2009. 
Dim basicCalendar As New Calendar()
basicCalendar.DisplayDateStart = New DateTime(2009, 1, 10)
basicCalendar.DisplayDateEnd = New DateTime(2009, 4, 18)
basicCalendar.DisplayDate = New DateTime(2009, 3, 15)
basicCalendar.SelectedDate = New DateTime(2009, 2, 15)

' root is a Panel that is defined elswhere. 
root.Children.Add(basicCalendar)

<!-- Create a Calendar that displays 1/10/2009
           through 4/18/2009. -->
<Calendar Margin="20" 
          SelectedDate="2/15/2009"
          DisplayDate="3/15/2009"
          DisplayDateStart="1/10/2009"
          DisplayDateEnd="4/18/2009"/>

Remarks

The DisplayDate and DisplayMode properties specify what the calendar displays and what has focus within the calendar. The user can change the SelectedDate only when DisplayMode is set to Month, but the user might change the DisplayDate when the Calendar is in Year and Decade mode. The following table describes how the mode changes the DisplayDate.

DisplayMode	Action
Month	DisplayDate changes when the user navigates to a different month.
Year	The month of DisplayDate changes when the user clicks or navigates to a different month.
Decade	The year of DisplayDate changes when the user clicks or navigates to another year.

DisplayDate is ignored if its value is outside of the range of dates that is specified by DisplayDateStart and DisplayDateEnd properties.
