Hello,
I'm encountering a bug, or user error, with the Format function and I'm
wondering if someone can either straighten me out or confirm the bug.
I'm passing in a Date to the Format function and a style:
Dim dte As Date = Date.Parse("8/19/2005 1:06:00 PM")
Dim s As String = "mm/dd/yyyy"
Console.WriteLine(Format(dte, s))
The Format function is returning:
06/19/2005
What is up with this?
Thanks in advance for any help
Steve

This is mm/dd/yyyy = minutes/day/year.
Use "MM" for month.

Steve,
Will you be so kind not to write "Bug" before you are absolute sure of it.
If everybody start from simple programs errors to tell that it can be a bug,
than Microsoft people will for sure ignore this newsgroups to look for bugs
what cannot be our goal.
Thanks in advance,
Cor
