How to navigate to current date in DateTimePickerAdv ?

In DateTimePicker, we can navigate to current date by using the NavigateToCurrentDate method.

For example, it is possible to select current date on Enter key press and the following code illustrates the same.

c#

void dateTimePickerAdv1_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, PreviewKeyDownEventArgs e)
{
   // On pressing Enter key, date time picker navigates to current date.
   if(e.KeyData== Keys.Enter)
    this.dateTimePickerAdv1.NavigateToCurrentDate(true);
}

vb

Private Sub dateTimePickerAdv1_PreviewKeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As PreviewKeyDownEventArgs)
   ' On pressing Enter key, date time picker navigates to current date.
   If e.KeyData= Keys.Enter Then
    Me.dateTimePickerAdv1.NavigateToCurrentDate(True)
   End If
End Sub
