month end date

[CsharpGuy]

I have a date such as 1/1/2005, how can i get the month end date for that
month?

[Brooke]

What I usually do is chose the 1st day of the following month and then
subtract one day.

Nice and simple, using your 1/1/2005 as the start date:

System.DateTime _myDate = new DateTime(2005,1 ,1);
_myDate.AddMont hs(1);
_myDate.AddDays (-1);

_myDate will now hold 31st of Jan 2005

how about something like..

MonthEnd= MyDate.AddMonth s(1)
MonthEnd = New Date(MonthEnd.Y ear, MonthEnd.Month, 1).AddDays(-1)

try this...

using System;



public class MyClass {



private static void GetMonthEnd(Sys tem.DateTime dateIn, ref System.DateTime dateOut){

dateIn = dateIn.AddMonth s(1);

dateIn = dateIn.AddDays(-1);

dateOut = new System.DateTime (dateIn.Year, dateIn.Month, dateIn.Day);

}



public static int Main(string[] args) {

System.DateTime jan = new System.DateTime (2005,3,1);

System.DateTime endOfJan = new System.DateTime ();



GetMonthEnd(jan , ref endOfJan);



Console.WriteLi ne("Jan: {0}", jan);

Console.WriteLi ne("endOfJan: {0}", endOfJan);



Console.Write(" \nPress any key to continue...");

Console.ReadKey ();



return 0;

}

}
