  I'm making a calendar with my own datagridview control. In each culumnheader I want to set the property

  for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++)

  {

  ColumnDayCell c = new ColumnDayCell();

  c.DisplayIndex = i;

  c.HeaderCell.Style.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

  c.HeaderCell.Value = CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat.GetDayName((DayOfWeek)((i + 1) % 7));

  this.Columns.Add(c);

  }

  but with danish weekdays.

  I get errors saying that Error

  The best overloaded method match for 'WinKalender.Calender.GetDayOfWeekNumber(WinKalender.Calender.DayOfWeek)' has some invalid arguments C:\WinKalender\WinKalender\Calender.cs 135 55 WinKalender

  Hi.

  To be honest, I don't understand why you want this... but maybe this helps you.

  public enum DayOfWeek { Mandag = System.DayOfWeek.Monday, Tirsdag = System.DayOfWeek.Tuesday, Onsdag = System.DayOfWeek.Wednesday, Torsdag = System.DayOfWeek.Thursday, Fredag = System.DayOfWeek.Friday, Lordag = System.DayOfWeek.Saturday, Sondag = System.DayOfWeek.Sunday }

  Then, you would simply call the GetDayName method like this:

  DayOfWeek day = DayOfWeek.Mandag; string strDay = CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat.GetDayName((System.DayOfWeek)day);

  Is this what you wanted

  Just to satisfy my curiosity... why do you want to use your own enumeration

  Regards,
  Fernando.

  I'm sorry, but I still fail to understand your problem.

  I'm from Uruguay, and if I was to make a calendar, CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat.GetDayName(DayOfWeek.Friday) would return "Viernes"... and that's pretty much what I would want.

  Can you help me understand what the problem is

  I 'm making a Danish Calendar and I want danish weekdays instead of english, thats why, the code you wrote won't work in this case. Thanks anyway

  This error occurs when you are trying to buill the application, right

  It appears the something goes running in the calling of the method GetDayOfWeekNumber. My guess is that since your Enumeration has the same name than Sysytem.DayOfWeek, you are using the wrong enumeration as parameter. Try using the Namespace (in the declaration and where you call it) or change your enumeration's name to avoid ambiguity.

  Another thing, wherever you call this method is not in the code you posted, so if you can't solve the problem, please post the method's signature and where you call it.

  I've solved the problem. I made an object of the cultureinfo class

  CultureInfo dkl = new CultureInfo( "dk-DK" );

  Then the danish weekdays work without making a new enum of weekdays

  Thanks Anyway
