Hello,
I am using a DateTimePicker set to retrieve time information only. I would
like to separately set the hour increment to 1 and the minutes increment to
30 but I cannot find out how I can use the different sections in the control.
Does anybody has an idea?

Thank you for your attention.

Well you can use the DateTime methods for this as follows

DateTime t = now;
DateTime tplus1hr30sec = t.AddHours(1);
tplus1hr30sec = t.AddMinutes(30);

and there you go, you have a time set 1:30 min apart time "t".

Hope this answers your question :)
 
Hello Ahmed,
Thanks for your answer, it is going to help me for sure.

However what I was looking for is the control's possibility but it looks
like we cannot access to the different sections of the time control.

I already did this job years ago in C++ by grouping textbox and spin control
into a dialog but I expected that the C# control encapsulated this for us.

Once again, thanks a lot.
