ctDays
 --  is a visual representation of a daily schedule plan. It is able to store a single days worth of information at a time. (If you need to view multiple days or resources, look at the multiple column day view scheduler ctMDay). A time-bar can be displayed that graphically presents a summary of an entire day's events. Appointments are easily created by clicking and selecting time lines and entering the appointment text from the keyboard. This makes it ideal for PIM or scheduling based applications.


Time Segments :
The time segments can be broken up into 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minute segments. However, an appointment can be set to start and finish at any minute. 

Edit Text : Edit text directly from an appointment. Click on the appointment to start editing the text. A new edit option allows for editing to stop when the "Enter" key is pressed. This makes the control ideal for entering a series of appointments directly from the keyboard. Use the arrow keys to move to the appropriate time. Start to enter the appointment text. Hit the "Enter" key to finish editing and then quickly move to the next appropriate time. 

Fill Styles : The background of the title, header, and time area can all be colored with different fill styles. Just like those found in the new GDI+ drawing routines for .NET. including patters for horizontal, vertical, diagonal, horizontal bump, vertical bump, pyramid, diamond, circular and elliptical gradient fills.

Print Schedule : Custom method prints schedule with a simple line of code.
