DateTime Problems [resolved]

[atmosphere]

Hey

I have the following string

strDate = "06/08/2005 12:10:09:672 PM"

(note that milliseconds are included)

I want to parse this string into a Date or DateTime but Date.Parse doesnt work. Any suggestions

Using DateTime.ParseExact you can specify the format.

Alright, thats one problem resolved.... but what if i want to get the date as a string in the same format? Is there a similar method to ParseExact that will convert to a string using a specified format?

 

[kulrom]

date.tostring("F") 'fulldatetimepattern or "dddd, MMMM, dd, yyyy HH:mm:ss"
date.tostring("g") 'general ... short date and short time or "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm"

and so on ....

i.e.
Now().ToString("d")


cheers
