Date Format

[pawanez4u]

Hi Every one,

I am working on ASP (C#) i got struk up with the following problem.

I am using the standard calendar control to get the date. I am able to display the selected date in this format "DD-MMM-YYYY HH:MM:SS". I want the selected date should in "dd/mm/yy" format.

Kindly help me..

Thanks in advance

Is there a .ToString() on the object anywhere? (Might be implicitly used)

But consider:

DateTime dt=DateTime.Now;
string mydatestring= dt.ToString( "dd/MM/yy");

Hi

Give it like this.
TextBox1.Text = Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString();

You get date in the format of mm/dd/yyyy

[baburk]

To get the date in more formates give it like this

TextBox1.Text = Calendar1.SelectedDate.GetDateTimeFormats('d')[6];

The dimension take 0-6 ie. 7 Formats available

Try it

Bye..

It was just an example, the hope was that you would decipher the two simple lines of code.

DateTime dt=<whatever date the calender picker is using>
string mydatestring= dt.ToString( "dd/MM/yy");
