Hi Friends,

I am Using ASP.NET1.1 and i want to convert the system date, in dd/MMM/yyyy format.

Earlier i use
lblDate.Text = System.DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(30).ToString();

But i want to convert this format to dd/MMM/yyyy, can anybody provide me some help or what can i do please suggest me...

Hmmm dont really get what you want to do so im guessing you want something like this:

lblDate.Text = System.DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(30).ToString("dd/MMM/yyyy ");


Just add "dd/MMM/yyyy" int the ToString to get the wanted format

The name 'dd' does not exist in the class or namespace 'test.UserControls.IndexHeader'

The format should be dd/MM/yyyy. Rather than convert methods I usually ensure that it is going to be consistent by setting the culture in the web.config. HTH.
