Dim dtmDate As DateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(Textbox1.Text, "M/d/yyyy",
Nothing);
Label1.Text = dtmDate.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")

N.B. "2008-08-06" is an ambiguous date format because it's not possible to
uniquely differentiate between the month and the day - depending where you
are in the world, this will be seen as 8th June. not 6th August. Use a
three-digit month instead.
