use DateTime format error

I use the DateTime format to change the date format, i.e.
string a = "21/02/2004";
Convert.ToDateT ime(a).ToString ("MMMM dd, yyyy");
These two lines work well in my VS.NET development machine. But it fail in
my production server. I don't know the reason??
My development machine: winXP Pro, VS.NET 2003
My Production machine: Win2000 server with SP4, .NET Framework 1.1

The settings on your development machine specify a default dd/MM/yyyy
format,
and your server has MM/dd/yyyy.
You can specify the format with:

DateTimeFormatI nfo myDTFI = new DateTimeFormatI nfo();
myDTFI.ShortDat ePattern = "dd/MM/yyyy";
DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse( myDateString, myDTFI);

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
