WinForms日期选择弹窗：选择日期后无法显示选中值

需求：实现一个日期选择弹窗，初始状态下日期框显示空白，用户选择日期后，将选中的日期填充到对应输入框中。目前初始空白功能已实现，但选择日期点击提交后，日期框仍保持空白，问题出在按钮点击事件逻辑中，预期点击提交后能显示选中的日期范围。

原尝试代码：

DateTime dtpStartDate = new DateTime(1000, 1, 1);
DateTime dtpEndDate = new DateTime(1000, 1, 1);
Form frm = new Form();
frm.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
frm.Height = 160;
frm.Width = 300;
Label lbl = new Label();
lbl.Text = "Select Date Range";
lbl.AutoSize = true;
lbl.Width = 165;
lbl.Height = 13;
lbl.Font = new Font(FontFamily.GenericSansSerif, 8.25F, FontStyle.Bold);
lbl.Location = new Point(66, 10);
Label lblStartDate = new Label();
lblStartDate.Text = "Start Month/Year:";
lblStartDate.AutoSize = true;
lblStartDate.Location = new Point(13, 26);
Label lblEndDate = new Label();
lblEndDate.Text = "End Month/Year:";
lblEndDate.AutoSize = true;
lblEndDate.Location = new Point(165, 26);
DateTimePicker dtpStart = new DateTimePicker();
dtpStart.Location = new Point(12, 45);
dtpStart.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dtpStart.CustomFormat = " ";
dtpStart.Width = 120;
dtpStart.Value = first;
DateTimePicker dtpEnd = new DateTimePicker();
dtpEnd.Location = new Point(165, 45);
dtpEnd.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dtpEnd.CustomFormat = " ";
dtpEnd.Width = 120;
dtpEnd.Value = last;
Button btn = new Button();
btn.Text = "Submit";
btn.Location = new Point(100, 80);
btn.Click += (object sender, EventArgs e) =>
            {
                dtpStart.Enabled = true;
                dtpStart.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy";
                dtpEnd.Enabled = true;
                dtpEnd.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy";
                dtpStartDate = dtpStart.Value;
                dtpEndDate = dtpEnd.Value;
                frm.Close();
            };
frm.Controls.Add(lbl);
frm.Controls.Add(lblStartDate);
frm.Controls.Add(lblEndDate);
frm.Controls.Add(dtpStart);
frm.Controls.Add(dtpEnd);
frm.Controls.Add(btn);
frm.Controls.Add(checkBoxBlanks11);
frm.ShowDialog();

问题原因

逻辑错位：在弹窗提交按钮事件中修改弹窗内部DateTimePicker的格式后，立刻关闭窗体，控件根本没有机会刷新显示新格式的内容。
核心逻辑错误：弹窗的作用是获取用户选择的日期值，而非在弹窗内部显示选中的日期——最终要把日期值传递回主窗体，由主窗体更新对应的显示控件。

解决方案

1. 修正核心逻辑：传递日期值回主窗体

将弹窗中的日期值通过out参数传递给主窗体，主窗体拿到值后更新自身的日期显示控件（比如主窗体的TextBox或DateTimePicker）。

2. 优化弹窗内的DateTimePicker交互（可选）

让用户在选择日期时就能看到选中内容，而非等提交按钮：

给DateTimePicker绑定ValueChanged事件，选择日期后自动切换显示格式
绑定DropDown事件，确保打开日期选择器时格式正常

修改后的代码示例

// 主窗体中调用弹窗的代码
DateTime selectedStartDate, selectedEndDate;
if (ShowDateRangePicker(out selectedStartDate, out selectedEndDate))
{
    // 主窗体更新显示控件，示例：txtStartDate是主窗体的TextBox
    txtStartDate.Text = selectedStartDate.ToString("MMMM yyyy");
    txtEndDate.Text = selectedEndDate.ToString("MMMM yyyy");
}

// 封装的日期选择弹窗方法
private bool ShowDateRangePicker(out DateTime startDate, out DateTime endDate)
{
    startDate = new DateTime(1000, 1, 1);
    endDate = new DateTime(1000, 1, 1);
    Form frm = new Form();
    frm.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
    frm.Height = 160;
    frm.Width = 300;
    frm.Text = "选择日期范围";

    Label lbl = new Label();
    lbl.Text = "选择日期范围";
    lbl.AutoSize = true;
    lbl.Font = new Font(FontFamily.GenericSansSerif, 8.25F, FontStyle.Bold);
    lbl.Location = new Point(66, 10);

    Label lblStartDate = new Label();
    lblStartDate.Text = "开始年月:";
    lblStartDate.AutoSize = true;
    lblStartDate.Location = new Point(13, 26);

    Label lblEndDate = new Label();
    lblEndDate.Text = "结束年月:";
    lblEndDate.AutoSize = true;
    lblEndDate.Location = new Point(165, 26);

    DateTimePicker dtpStart = new DateTimePicker();
    dtpStart.Location = new Point(12, 45);
    dtpStart.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
    dtpStart.CustomFormat = " ";
    dtpStart.Width = 120;
    // 选择日期后自动显示格式
    dtpStart.ValueChanged += (s, e) => 
    {
        dtpStart.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy";
    };
    // 打开下拉框时确保格式正常
    dtpStart.DropDown += (s, e) => 
    {
        dtpStart.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy";
    };

    DateTimePicker dtpEnd = new DateTimePicker();
    dtpEnd.Location = new Point(165, 45);
    dtpEnd.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
    dtpEnd.CustomFormat = " ";
    dtpEnd.Width = 120;
    dtpEnd.ValueChanged += (s, e) => 
    {
        dtpEnd.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy";
    };
    dtpEnd.DropDown += (s, e) => 
    {
        dtpEnd.CustomFormat = "MMMM yyyy";
    };

    Button btnSubmit = new Button();
    btnSubmit.Text = "确定";
    btnSubmit.Location = new Point(100, 80);
    btnSubmit.Click += (s, e) =>
    {
        startDate = dtpStart.Value;
        endDate = dtpEnd.Value;
        frm.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
        frm.Close();
    };

    Button btnCancel = new Button();
    btnCancel.Text = "取消";
    btnCancel.Location = new Point(180, 80);
    btnCancel.Click += (s, e) =>
    {
        frm.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel;
        frm.Close();
    };

    frm.Controls.Add(lbl);
    frm.Controls.Add(lblStartDate);
    frm.Controls.Add(lblEndDate);
    frm.Controls.Add(dtpStart);
    frm.Controls.Add(dtpEnd);
    frm.Controls.Add(btnSubmit);
    frm.Controls.Add(btnCancel);

    return frm.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK;
}

关键修改点

用out参数传递选中的日期值回主窗体
给DateTimePicker添加事件，确保选择日期时即时显示内容
增加取消按钮，完善交互流程
用DialogResult判断用户是否确认选择
