You can use simple textbox and regular expression to satisfy your need.
Folllowing code will restrict user to enter the data only in hh:mm:ss and
you can specify the range of your textbox while modifying
the regular expression value as per your reqirement.

     private void txtTime_Validating(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
        {
            System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex rTime = new System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex(@"[0-2][0-9]\:[0-6][0-9]\:[0-6][0-9]");
            if (txtTime.Text.Length > 0)
            {

                if (!rTime.IsMatch(txtTime.Text))
                {

                    MessageBox.Show("Please provide the time in hh:mm:ss format", "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);

                 }
            }

        }

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Following code will  allow user to enter only digit.

private void txtTime_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
        {
            if (char.IsDigit(e.KeyChar) || char.IsControl(e.KeyChar)||(e.KeyChar.ToString() == ":"))
            {
                e.Handled = false;
            }
            else
            {
                e.Handled = true;
            }

        }

Note: My textbox id is 'txtTime'

Answer 4

You can use the maxdate property and specify the maxTime you want for your input.
Say if you specify as 10:00:00,in maxdate property it takes the value properly. You cannot specify
maxtime as 30:00:00 as it takes upto 23:59.59. In datetime picker it accept the time as standard time format
which cant go beyond 23:59:59. So I dont think there is any alternate way to specify maximum time as 30:00:00
