AFAIK, `TCalendar` does not directly support what you are asking for. Being a `TCustomGrid` descendant, you will likely have to derive a new class from `TCalendar` and override its virtual `DrawCell()` and/or `DrawCellBackground()` method. – Remy Lebeau Aug 04 '20 at 00:17

That TCalendar component has been around since Delphi 1, and was an example of how to create components (that's why it's on the Samples palette page). You're much better off using the modern TCalendarView component, which will do what you're asking. – Ken White Aug 04 '20 at 00:19
