Well you are doing a lot of ' and " and "" in that string.
I recomend switching to either a StringBuilder or a Parameter-ized command

EDIT:
Actually, just going through it I see a lot of missing characters.


Try this:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. MyCommand.CommandText = string.Format("select * from Booking2 where BookingDate between convert(datetime,'{0}',103) AND convert(datetime,'{1}',103)", Me.DateTimePicker1.Value.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"),Me.DateTimePicker1.Value.AddDays(1).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"))
  2.
