Date Time

[Craig]

How do you get just the date part of a datetime value = 1/1/2005 11:15:00
AM.

Result = 1/1/2005

Isn't there something built into the date functions in VB?

I am using vb in asp.net

Thanks

Craig,

have a look at the DateTime.ToShortDateString and DatePart methods.

Craig,

When you next time give a question about dates than don't do it with the
sample you did.

Because of the AM, I think that you are from the USA. If you use something
as

12/31/2005 11:15:00 AM than everybody can see that direct.

The most easy method is to convert that string to a DateTime with
Cdate(mystring) and than get the individual parts from a property or a
method from that.

I hope this helps
