Answer 1

Try to Use Following :

dateTimePicker1.MinDate = new DateTime(year, month,day);
dateTimePicker1.MaxDate = new DateTime(year, month,day);
dateTimePicker1.ShowUpDown = true;
dateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "MMMM dd";

To disable Days before the first day of current month:

dateTimePicker1.MinDate = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, 1);

Limit Future Date :

MaxDate is used as follows

dateTimePicker1.MaxDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(number of days);
