here i would like to provide drop down for years and another dropdown for months selection instead of >>,<<,> and < buttons., and should show calender respective month or year selection in dropdown., and shold have same properties of date control.

can any one help to get this requirement to creat custom date control and should use in all my CAF developments and should available to all developers in their designer palette environment.

Currently, CAF has a few options for code reuse including Portlets, Templates and Snippets.

You’ll probably need to try a few experiments to decide which technique will work the best for your requirements.
