Hi, I am trying to add a birthday column to the profile. I figured i need to login as host and add a datatype of type Date. However, i don't know what controls to associate that type with. Is there a DNN Calendar controls (like the one used for date fields in the core modules)? If so, can i get the namespace for it.

Help would be appreciated.

Thanks

i needed similar functionality. 

i first added 3 dropdownlists to my form then bound them like this:

            Dim colMonth As Lists.ListEntryInfoCollection = objListController.GetListEntryInfoCollection("Month", "")
            ddlMonth.DataSource = colMonth
            ddlMonth.DataBind()
            ddlMonth.Items.Insert(0, New ListItem("<Month>", ""))

            ddlDay.Items.Insert(0, New ListItem("<Day>", ""))
            Dim iDays As Integer
            For iDays = 1 To 31
                ddlDay.Items.Insert(iDays, New ListItem(iDays.ToString()))
            Next

            Dim arrYears As New ArrayList
            Dim iYear As Integer
            For iYear = (Today.Year - 100) To Today.Year
                arrYears.Add(iYear)
            Next
            arrYears.Reverse()
            ddlYear.DataSource = arrYears
            ddlYear.DataBind()
            ddlYear.Items.Insert(0, New ListItem("<Year>", ""))


i then needed to validate the selections.

        Private Sub valDOB_ServerValidate(ByVal source As System.Object, ByVal args As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ServerValidateEventArgs) Handles valDOB.ServerValidate
            Try
                If ddlMonth.SelectedIndex > 0 And ddlDay.SelectedIndex > 0 And ddlYear.SelectedIndex > 0 Then
                    Dim iMonth As Integer = CType(ddlMonth.SelectedValue, Integer)
                    Dim iDate As Integer = CType(ddlDay.SelectedValue, Integer)
                    Dim iYear As Integer = CType(ddlYear.SelectedValue, Integer)

                    Dim dob As New System.DateTime(iYear, iMonth, iDate)
                    Dim age As Integer = CType(DateDiff("yyyy", dob, Date.Today()), Integer)

                    If age > 13 Then
                        _dob = dob
                        args.IsValid = True
                    Else
                        valDOB.ErrorMessage = "<br>Underage.  Must be 13 years old or older."
                        args.IsValid = False
                    End If
                Else
                    args.IsValid = False
                End If

            Catch exc As Exception    'Module failed to load
                ProcessModuleLoadException(Me, exc)
            End Try
        End Sub

then add to userprofile.

objUserInfo.Profile.SetProfileProperty("DOB", _dob)

UserController.UpdateUser(PortalId, objUserInfo)

i hope this helps.

you might use a text box, as users usually don't need a calendar to type in their birthdays.
