so you want a drop down list that is populated with dates in the format of "d-m-y"?

Do you have any code to post that we can look at? Or are you expecting us to do this for you?

how many dates do you want in the box? from the beginning of time to the end of time?

why not use a Calender control?

in my project i need to use this type of date format so i cant use calednder ctrl. it's like how date time picker works in windows application. but d diff is i want to display only d-m-y and not time.i dont know how to create this.so if u have a n idea help me.

thnx in advance,

using a DropDownList/ComboBox

DateTime startDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-30);

for (int i = 1; i <= 60; i++)
{
    dropDownList.Items.Add(startDate.AddDays(i).ToString("dd-MM-yyyy"));
}

this will start 30 days in the past(from the current date), and go ~30 days into the future. You can make the range as wide as you would like it.
