Hi,
I use DateTime.Now to display the current date and time. For instance,
it's default format is 2003-10-29 21:23:36.
How can I change the format as follows?
10/29/2003 9:23:36 PM
MM/DD/YY HH/MM/SS AM/PM
Thanks for help
Tom

Tom,
When using the ToString method on the DateTime structure, you can use
the following format string to get the format that you wish:
M/D/yyyy h:m:s tt
If you want to have a leading zero for any of the arguments (month, day,
hour, minute, second), then double up the format character for that section.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I replaced DateTime.Now with DateTime.Now.To String(). But,
the date is same as before.
Could you teach me how to get the M/D/yyyy h:m:s tt format
from that date string?
Thanks for help

Tom,
I don't understand what you are trying to do. The representation of a
DateTime structure in .NET is just that, an instance of the DateTime
structure.
If you want to get that date in a string that is formatted that way,
take the string that I posted, and then pass it into the ToString method,
like this:
// Get the current date/time in the string format we desire.
string pstrFormattedDa teTime = DateTime.Now.To String("M/D/yyyy h:m:s tt");

I tried to use DateTime.Now.To String("M/D/yyyy h:m:s tt")
The time is correct. But, the date prints 10-D-2003.
If I use DateTime.Now.To String("m/d/yyyy h:m:s tt")
The date prints 39-10-2003.
If I use DateTime.Now.To String("M/d/yyyy h:m:s tt")
The date prints 10-10-2003.
How can the date print 10/10/2003? or, it is no way to do it?
Thanks for your help.

Use this:
dd/MM/yyyy
Use the "exact" spelling, including upper and lower case.
