Hello group
I am using the now function to obtain the time, however because
my server is located in a different locale, I am getting the wrong
format - instead of 07/08 etc I am getting 08/07 etc (the American
format). Is there a simple way to change this? 8 3350

to format output you can use the ToString() method with appropriate
formats as follows
DateTime.Today.ToString("dd/MM");
Hi,
Use DateTime.ParseExact("parsing string", iformatprovider) where in format
provider you can specify the culture.
I hope that will be a good start point.

I have
dim a as datetime
a.parseexact(a.today,"en-GB")
is this correct?

DateTime.ParseExact method converts the string to a date. You have
already a date value. All what you need is to show that date in the
format you need. Either use .ToString() method, or change a culture in
your application.
Go to web.config and add this
<globalization culture="en-GB" uiCulture="en-GB" />

DateTime.Now.ToString("dd MMM yyyy"), assuming you want both Y2k
compatability and non-ambiguity...

Thanks, I did it this way, I found it in the msdn
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCultu re = New
System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB", False)
After this the Now function works correctly.

It will work, but you always have to set the culture for the current
thread. If your application is designed for UK only, you can specify
that value on the global level in the web.config file. You also can
use the @Page Directive
<%@Page Culture="en-GB" ....
