I want to insert all days (startday to endday) in a Table for the selected month in a CalendarView.
So, I put a CalendarView and three Edit. And I have a Table named "Month" with a column named "Days".
EditMonth.Text := IntToStr(DaysInMonth(CalendarView1.Date));
- which returns the number of the Month selected in the CalendarView.EditStartDay.Text := DateToStr(STARTOFTHEMONTH(CalendarView1.Date));
- which returns the start day of the month.EditEndDay.Text := DateToStr(ENDOFTHEMONTH(CalendarView1.Date));
- which returns the end day of the month.Now, I want to insert all dates between "01/10/2024" and "31/10/2024" in the Table "Month". How can I do it using a loop or another way?
Since you already know how to get the start and end dates as TDateTime
values, it is fairly trivial to loop between them. TDateTime
stores days as whole integers, so simply begin with the start date and add 1
for each day until you reach the end date, eg:
uses
..., DateUtils;
var
dtSelectedDate, dtStartDate, dtEndDate, dtCurrentDate: TDateTime;
begin
dtSelectedDate := DateOf(CalendarView1.Date);
dtStartDate := StartOfTheMonth(dtSelectedDate);
dtEndDate := EndOfTheMonth(dtSelectedDate);
EditMonth.Text := IntToStr(DaysInMonth(dtSelectedDate));
EditStartDay.Text := DateToStr(dtStartDate);
EditEndDay.Text := DateToStr(dtEndDate);
dtCurrentDate := dtStartDate;
while dtCurrentDate <= dtEndDate do
begin
// insert dtCurrentDate into Table
dtCurrentDate := dtCurrentDate + 1;
// or:
dtCurrentDate := IncDay(dtCurrentDate);
end;
end;
On the other hand, since you also know how to get the number of days in a month, you can alternatively use a for
loop instead, eg:
uses
..., DateUtils;
var
dtSelectedDate, dtStartDate, dtCurrentDate: TDateTime;
iNumDays, I: Integer;
begin
dtSelectedDate := DateOf(CalendarView1.Date);
iNumDays := DaysInMonth(dtSelectedDate);
dtStartDate := StartOfTheMonth(dtSelectedDate);
EditMonth.Text := IntToStr(iNumDays);
EditStartDay.Text := DateToStr(dtStartDate);
EditEndDay.Text := DateToStr(EndOfTheMonth(dtSelectedDate));
dtCurrentDate := dtStartDate;
for I := 1 to iNumDays do
begin
// insert dtCurrentDate into Table
dtCurrentDate := dtCurrentDate + 1;
// or:
dtCurrentDate := IncDay(dtCurrentDate);
end;
end;
