Set focus on date field in DateTimePicker control in Windows form

问题

I've a DateTimePicker control in my code. And I have used a custom format.

this.dateTimePickerDate.CustomFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy";
this.dateTimePickerDate.Value = System.DateTime.Now;

Now the requirement is to focus on the date part of the control. For example if this control shows 30/06/2011, after the form_load, then 30 from the date part should be selected or the cursor will be after the 0 in 30.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe this code helps:

dateTimePicker1.GotFocus += new EventHandler(dateTimePicker1_GotFocus);

void dateTimePicker1_GotFocus(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SendKeys.Send("{RIGHT 1}");
}

And on form load set focus to datetimepicker.

As suggested here, I don't think that's possible.

In that link is also suggested a tricky workaround (i.e. programmatically press the arrow to the right when the datetimepicker has got the focus) but that could lead to unexpected side-effects.
