How to disable keyboard input in DateTimePicker?

I'm using Extended WPF Toolkit and I need to disable keyboard input for TextBox (or whatever it is) in DateTimePicker. I've already tried this:

<xctk:DateTimePicker Value="{Binding DateStart, Mode=TwoWay}" Style="{StaticResource CustomDatePicker}">
    <xctk:DateTimePicker.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="TextBox">
            <Setter Property="IsReadOnly" Value="True"/>
        </Style>
    </xctk:DateTimePicker.Resources>
</xctk:DateTimePicker>

For both TargetType="TextBox" and TargetType="DatePickerTextBox" - they don't work.

How can I disable keyboard input (without making it ReadOnly - I still need to be able to pick date and time)?

Not sure if Rahul's answer works or not, because I have slightly different answer.

<Style TargetType="{x:Type xctk:WatermarkTextBox}">
   <Setter Property="IsReadOnly" Value="True"/>
</Style>

Your TargetType is wrong. You need to change your TargetType like below:

TargetType="{xctk:Type toolkitPrimitives:DatePickerTextBox}"

Note : Make sure you are having reference to the toolkitPrimitives namespace

e.g xmlns:toolkitPrimitives="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Windows.Controls.Primitives;assembly=WPFToolkit

You can try to use AllowTextInput property.

<xctk:DateTimePicker Height="20" Width="200" AllowTextInput="False" />
