DatePicker datePickerFor2009 = new DatePicker();
datePickerFor2009.SelectedDate = new DateTime(2009, 3, 23);
datePickerFor2009.DisplayDateStart = new DateTime(2009, 1, 1);
datePickerFor2009.DisplayDateEnd = new DateTime(2009, 12, 31);
datePickerFor2009.SelectedDateFormat = DatePickerFormat.Long;
datePickerFor2009.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday;

// root is a Panel that is defined elsewhere.
root.Children.Add(datePickerFor2009);

Dim datePickerFor2009 As New DatePicker()
datePickerFor2009.SelectedDate = New DateTime(2009, 3, 23)
datePickerFor2009.DisplayDateStart = New DateTime(2009, 1, 1)
datePickerFor2009.DisplayDateEnd = New DateTime(2009, 12, 31)
datePickerFor2009.SelectedDateFormat = DatePickerFormat.[Long]
datePickerFor2009.FirstDayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.Monday

' root is a Panel that is defined elsewhere. 
root.Children.Add(datePickerFor2009)

<!-- A DatePicker that has March 23, 2009 selected and 
           displays the Long date format. -->

                  DisplayDateStart="1/01/09" DisplayDateEnd="12/31/09"
