Hello,
I am a beginner in C# programming and I just want to know how we can
pass a datetime variable in a method. can anyone please help me
regarding this.
Thanks,

Hi James,
welcome to the great world of programming!
Here is a example:
public void PrintDateAndTim e(System.DateTi me DateAndTimeToPr int)
{
System.Console. WriteLine("Actu al Date and Time: {0}",
DateAndTimeToPr int.ToString()) ;
}
you invoke it that way:
PrintDateAndTim e(System.DateTi me.Now);
Asuming that you are working on a Console!
You should read the basics about functions/members/methods:
[Methods (C# Programming Guide)] http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173114.aspx
I higly recommend you to read the C# language reference, because
it is a great starting point for beginners:
[C# Programming Guide] http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/67ef8sbd.aspx
If you have more questions, feel free to ask them here:
Enjoy,...!
Regards
Kerem

pass a datetime variable in a method. can anyone please help me
regarding this.
I assume that you already know how to declare the method and that your
problem is that you don't know how to insert into your code a given date,
such as "September 28th, 2008". One of the ways to do it is by means of one
of the constructors of the DateTime class, which takes year, month and day
as parameters:
DateTime dateToPass = new DateTime(2008,9 ,28);
MyMethod(dateTo Pass);
.....
private void MyMethod(DateTi me argument)
{
//Here 'argument' contains the date that you passed.
}
Do you know how to pass date arguments in C#?
VB Example
Public Sub Test (datTest As Date)
MsgBox(datTest. ToString())
End Sub
Public Sub TestCall()
Me.Test(#1/1/2001#)
End Sub
In this example, the TestCall procedure wraps the # qualifer around the
date. What is the equivalent in C#
public void Test (DateTime datTest)
{
MessageBox.Show (datTest.ToStri ng());
}
public void TestCall()
{
this.Test(#1/1/2001#);
}
I have looked at dozens of samples on-line and multiple books, but nothing
shows how to do this and it is starting to irritate me. This is basic stuff,
but it is not documented anywhere that Google can find...

That's not your actual problem - passing DateTime arguments is the same
in C# as in VB. The problem is that C# doesn't have DateTime literals,
which is what your #1/1/2001# is. Change that to new
DateTime(2001, 1, 1) and your code will compile and work fine.

Hello,
I have a system where it gets its data from a file that is provided

Considering DateTime variable doesn't accept null, and SQL Server doesn't
accept DateTime.MinValue...
What is the solution to deal with these kind of cases? I probably could
create some work around to send some awkword value that SQL accept and then

I've searched everywhere for this but I'm not sure exactly what to
search for.
What I am trying to do is pass a variable to a php script via the URL.
However, I don't want to use the standard "?name=value format." I want
to either pass the variable as "value website.com" or
"website.com/value" where the script is stored in some directory
"website.com/script/index.php" and the value gets stored in a variable
declared within my php script.

I'm able to pass string parameters with no problems to a LocalReport being
displayed by the ASP.NET ReportViewer control. However, my report also has
a DateTime parameter. LocalReport.SetParameters(..) only seems to allow me
to set string parameters. Is there a way to pass DateTime (or other types)
of parameters? Or can I only use string parameters in a LocalReport if I
need to pass them in from my ASP.NET app?
Thanks,
