Hi paminchever,

Simply assign start date to c_date as follows,

c_date.StartDate = DateTime.Now;

using System.Drawing;
 
public partial class DefaultCS : System.Web.UI.Page
{
  protected void Calendar1_DayRender(object sender, System.Web.UI.WebControls.DayRenderEventArgs e)
  {
    // Select all dates in the past just a condition, you can check dates as per your business logic
    if (e.Day.Date < System.DateTime.Today)
    {           
      // Disable date
      e.Day.IsSelectable = false;
      // Change color of disabled date
      e.Cell.ForeColor = Color.Gray;
    } 
 
  }
}

Hi paminchever.

After reading your description, as far as I know, there is no direct function or method could achieve your needs. You could do is disable date by startDate, endDate attribution. I think you could use JQuery UI plugin such as datepicker which could disable some specific date via BeforeShowDay(). For more details, please check the following tutorials: 

Jquery UI datepicker. Disable array of Dates:

If you could use MS Calendar Control, you can override the calendar_dayRender() to get your needs:

if (e.Day.Date>=new DateTime(2018,5,1)&&e.Day.Date<new DateTime(2018,5,11))
            {
                e.Cell.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.LightGray;
                e.Day.IsSelectable = false;
            }
