The Type or namespace name “DateTimeControl” does not exist in the namespace “Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls”
If you create an empty SharePoint 2010 project in Visual Studio 2010 and then add a visual Web Part (Sandboxed) you will get an error when you try to debug.
The Type or namespace name “DateTimeControl” does not exist in the namespace “Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls”
However you can add the DateTimeControl to a farm solution visual web part.

Thanks. I couldn’t find this answer anywhere else. BTW: I’m using 2013 and there’s still the same error and the same fix.
