How to convert the email date in header to the date of vb.net?

[yxq]

Hello,

I found there are some date formats in the email header,

for example:
Fri, 23 Sep 2005 08:51:56 +0800
Sat, 17 Sep 2005 09:08:07
Wed Oct 19 13:40:23 2005
19 Oct 2005 13:40:23 +0000
19 Oct 2005 13:40:23 -0400

How to convert these date formats to VB.NET date? Thank you!

Hello,

AFAIK, you'll have to use custom date & time format strings and
Date.ParseExact method for this, e.g. for first item in your list:

~
Dim dt As Date = Date.ParseExact("Fri, 23 Sep 2005 08:51:56 +0800",
"ddd, dd MMM yyyy hh:mm:ss zzzz",
Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo)
~

See this for more info:
