get the month (number) and year value from a date

[Aussie Rules]

Hi,

How do I extract just the month part of a date. Say for example I wanted to
get the value of 6 (as in sixth month) from todays date.

Hi Aussie,

Thank you for posting.

If you have a variable of type DateTime, you could use the Month property
to get the month part of the date.

For example, you could get the month part of today by the following
statement:
dim month as Integer
month = DateTime.Today.Month
// or
month = DateTime.Now.Month

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Sincerely,

Linda,

I don't think it is right to give converted C# code while there is better VB
code.

Have a look what Herfried has showed,

Just my opinion.
