Convert Short date to Long date

[OuTCasT]

Hi.
I would like to know how to convert the short date format to the long date format for my application without changing the regional settings from short date to long date. ?

What i mean is
say the pc that the application is on, the pc's date is set to short date. so displaying 09/05/31 or 31/05/09
I need it to convert that to 2009/05/31 or 31/05/2009

hello,

you could try this:

YourTextbox.text=format$(Date,"YYYY/DD/MM")
                             or
YourTextbox.text=format$(Date,"DD/MM/YYYY")

Hi Lee123

I resolved it with

lblDate.Text = dtFirstPayDate.DateTime.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd")

Same method as u suggested.

Thanks
