textControl.FormFields.Add(dateFormField);

foreach (string text in dateFormField.SupportedDateFormats)
{
    Console.WriteLine(text.Length);
}

Dim dateFormField As New DateFormField(Date.Today.AddDays(14), 0) With { .Name = "DeliveryDate" }
textControl.FormFields.Add(dateFormField)

For Each text As String In dateFormField.SupportedDateFormats
