Pelegk1,

I do not think it is possible to convert the actual Hebrew string "?"? ???
???"?" to a date. You would need the integral representation of the date,
something parsable by the DateTime type.

If you have the date in this format, try using the opposite of what you have
already:

Dim jewishCulture As CultureInfo =
CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("he-IL")
jewishCulture.DateTimeFormat.Calendar = New HebrewCalendar
Dim dt As DateTime = DateTime.Parse(<date time here>,
jewishCulture.DateTimeFormat)

Hope this helps,
Steve
