Can I use format on sqlDateTime object?

mhf
I have a SqlDateTime object, but when I use DataBinder.Eval on it, the
formatting is ignored:

DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "mySqlDateTimeObj", "{0:d}")

produces output like this: "10/17/2003 12:00:00 am"
Why can't I use format specifiers on SqlDateTime objects??

Thanks to anyone who can shed a little light ....

Hi,

you can use SQL server Convertto return date format as string :

"Select OrderID, CustomerID, Convert(char(12), OrderDate, 107)
from Northwind.Orders"
