<cc1:CalendarExtender ID="txtrequiredby_CalendarExtender" Format="dd/MM/yyyy"
runat="server" Enabled="True" TargetControlID="txtrequiredby" >

 <asp:RangeValidator ID="rvreqby" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Required By Date
Greater Than or Equal to current date" ControlToValidate="txtrequiredby"

Thank you for visiting the Q&A section on Magenaut. Please note that all the answers may not help you solve the issue immediately. So please treat them as advisements. If you found the post helpful (or not), leave a comment & I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Method 1

MinimumValue & MaximumValue need to be set in the Page_PreRender event and appear to require the date format as “dd-MM-yy”…see last post on Rangevalidator Min Max Value error

protected void Page_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RangeValidator1.MinimumValue = DateTime.Now.Date.ToString("dd-MM-yy");
    RangeValidator1.MaximumValue = DateTime.Now.Date.AddYears(90).ToString("dd-MM-yy");
}

Method 2

Format of the MinimumValue and MaximumValue should be yyyy/MM/dd
