To change the date format, complete the following steps:
1. Click the C1DateTimePicker control once to select it.
2. In the Properties window, click the DateFormat drop-down arrow and select a mode from the list. For this example, select Long.
In XAML
To change the date format, place DateFormat="Long" to the <my:C1DateTimePicker> tag so that the markup resembles the following:
<my:C1DateTimePicker DateFormat="Long">
In Code

C1DateTimePicker1.DateFormat = Microsoft.Windows.Controls.DatePickerFormat.Long
