ASP Calendar control like Google's calendar - asp.net

I'm going to start working on project developed in ASP.NET.
In this project I need to show the data in a month calender like Google's calendar or something like that.
So my question is:
Is there any control I can use to do this thing?
If not, what do you suggest?

There's the Calendar control in ASP.NET which offers some basic functionality that you may take a look at. There's also a calendar extension in the AJAX Control Toolkit.

How to create own datepicker control in asp.net?

I want to create my own datepickar control(or dll),so can use it another project.How to create that?
Why create such a thing for yourself and invest a lot of time investigating, fixing problems, providing support, ... for it?
There are a bunch of such controls available which can be found with a simple search via your preferred search engine.
For ASP.NET I would suggest to either buy a 3rd party control from a well known vendor or take a look at the following:
jQuery UI Datepicker
ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit Calendar control
If you're using ASP.NET 4.0 or above, I'd suggest using the Bootstrap datepicker to keep your application looking consistent.
You can find the Bootstrap datepicker here: https://bootstrap-datepicker.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Showing real time result in textbox in asp.net

I'm developing a website (ASP.net) which involves users typing in a textbox to search. I want to display result in the textbox as they are typing the keywords (just like when we are searching on Google).
How can I do this?
Thanks
What you ask is called autocomplete and since you are working on asp.net the most easy direct solution is the use of asp.net ajax control toolkit
http://www.asp.net/ajaxLibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/AutoComplete/AutoComplete.aspx
How ever if you use some other javascript helper library, like jQuery, you can find a lot more examples, one of them : jQuery Autocomplete and ASP.NET
Also if you search for "autocomplete asp.net" you find more examples, some of them:

Calender control in asp.net

I am writing a website in asp.net and looking for a control in which I can show a simple but very good looking calender.
The calender shoud show different events with a timestamp on it and additional informations (e.g.: 20 persons registered).
On a click on the event it should show the details.
All this must be read out of a database.
Any ideas?
The Telerik RadScheduler comes to mind, but is paid: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/scheduler/examples/overview/defaultcs.aspx
For free there is FullCalendar for JQuery: http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/
DHTMLX Scheduler .NET is also an option. Check this demo, it looks good http://scheduler-net.com/demo.aspx

Conversion from Coldfusion to Asp.net (Drag and Drop Functionality)

I have Coldfusion web application that has a CF query from a database table. This data is displayed in an HTML table with a checkbox beside each data item and an associated picture. There is Jquery functionality on the page so that the items can be re-arranged in the table based on the users preference. After the user finishes with their re-arrangement, it is re-displayed without the checkboxes for sending as an email. Note I did not write this application myself but inherited it...
I need to transfer this functionality to a asp.net C# web application but i am at a crossroads on how to proceed. I've looked at telerik controls and others but none appear to fit the functionality i need. Any solid suggestions?
I'd suggest to handle rendering of the table yourself. If you're using asp.net webforms, this can be done with a custom server control. If you're using asp.net mvc (which I suggest as MVC matches the coldfusion development model a bit closer than webforms), then it's much simpler and you can just do so in the view.
Once you are rendering the grid yourself, then it's simple to apply the jquery functionality on the client-side.
Without more info about what you can or can't do, it's a bit difficult to offer any more guidance. But you did only ask for suggestions :-)
Asp.net doesn't mean you need to use a library control built for .net. jQuery is powerful enough today, and it's not tied to any back end technology.
So, that being said, I would still go with jQuery and back it up with RESTful request using webservices with WebForms or controllers with MVC.
Have a look at this: JQuery Drag and Drop features with ASP.NET

asp.net calendar control: is it good?

I'm looking to determine if I'm going to use the calendar control that's out-of-the-box in ASP.NET 4 or if I should look elsewhere, may be a jQuery calendar that just receives json or another .net server option.
Has anyone worked with the native calendar control?
Thanks.
I personally like Rick Strahl's implementation of the [link text][jQuery Date Picker] for ASP.Net. I used the one at http://www.eworldui.net/ prior to discovering the West Wind date picker, and will never go back.
I personally do not like asp.net native calendar control due to lack of extensibility. I would create a JQuery control since it will be more responsive(client-side).
