DateTimePicker Control in WPF

I am searching for a DateTimePicker control which can be used as a textbox so user can enter date/time data at will (ie; type in the string "11/09/2008 12:30:00") or can select date/time from a drop down list that contains a calendar/time box (what i meant is that this control can provide both options as mentioned). If you have found such a flexible control (and free too) please give me the needed information to obtain it.

I've resolved my problem by using the Winform's DateTimePicker control. I added the System.Windows.Forms ref and used WindowsFormHost when refering to the control in my xaml. For date entry slot, i set Format=Short, AllowDrop=True. For time entry slot, Format=Time, ShowUpDown=True. - Micheline

There's the DatePicker and Calendar controls from the WPF team, but I don't believe they handle times (as in your example) - just dates. Worth a look though.

Have a look at this WPF Date Picker question.

Telerik has a decent DateTimePicker control but it's not free.

Old question, but for anyone interested... Extended WPF Toolkit™ Community Edition is free (also has a premium option) and contains a DateTimePicker which I have found to be very useful in WPF!

I am not sure whether you don't want to use JQuery or not aware of it. But here is this free/open source date time picker from JQuery which does exactly what you are looking for, plus lot more.
