Just wondering how I can convert the following string into a datetime 111222, at the moment it is telling me that this is not a valid datetime value..
You can use the DateTime.ParseExact method and supply the format your input is in.
Edit - added code:
DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact("111222", "yyMMdd", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString());

In my SQL database, I have a column formatted as DateTime and when I retrieve data from that column in ASP.NET, I catch it on the Date variable, than pass the value to textbox:
Dim Y As Date = dt.Rows(0)("SCH_DATE")
txtSchedDate.Text = Y.Date.ToString
but when I debug my website, the txtSchedDate.Text still gives me the full DateTime value:
7/17/2013 12:00:00 AM
is it possible to eliminate the time value here and just return the date?
Have you tried using something like
txtSchedDate.Text = Y.Date.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")
or which ever format you wish to display.
Have a look at
DateTime.ToString Method (String)
Converts the value of the current DateTime object to its equivalent
string representation using the specified format.
Custom Date and Time Format Strings
Standard Date and Time Format Strings
Convert.ToDateTime(dt.Rows(0)("SCH_DATE")).ToString("M/d/yyy")
you can get date by txtSchedDate.Text = Y.Date.ToShortDateString()
Besides answers above, you can try converting it in SQL server
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(15), GETDATE(), 11)
Keep in mind after converting it's VARCHAR(15) instead of DATETIME.
Once you have a Date object, you can get the constituent pieces if you wish as well, like this:
Dim Y As Date = dt.Rows(0)("SCH_DATE")
txtSchedDate.Text = Y.Date.Year & "-" & Y.Date.Month & "-" & Y.Date.Day
Or you can use the custom and standard date and time format strings mentioned by others.
I am writing this code the text Change event but it is showing the error that is string is not valid.
DateTime ts=Convert.ToDateTime(Joiningdate.Text);
DateTime dt1=ts.AddMonths(6);
txtcd.Text = dt1.ToShortDateString();
The DataTime format does not match the format you need to convert string to DateTime object. You can use DateTime.ParseExact() to give you format you date you have.
Assuming you have format dd/MM/YY for the textbox
DateTime ts= DateTime.ParseExact(Joiningdate.Text, "dd/MM/yy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
DateTime dt1=ts.AddMonths(6);
txtcd.Text = dt1.ToShortDateString();
The problem is with the format of Joiningdate.Text
You will have to tell that in what format your date time is.
If your date time is in format use
DateTime ts= DateTime.ParseExact(Joiningdate.Text, "ddMMyyyy",
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
DateTime dt1=ts.AddMonths(6);
nd then you can convert back to any format you want
ts.ToString("yyyyMMdd");
You can go through this link

I have a string that holds a value in the format of ddMMyyhhmmss.
Example 240512024707
I need to be able to convert this date to a real .NET Date object.
I am currently using CDate but it seems CDate does not recognize the format, is there any way of specifying the string format to CDate ???
row.Item("NoteDate") = CDate(n.noteText.Substring(0, 12).ToString).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss")
You have the string with the date, you know the exact format string - use DateTime.ParseExact (or DateTime.TryParseExact if you wish to avoid the potential exception being thrown):
DateTime.ParseExact("240512024707", "ddMMyyhhmmss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
My jquery function returning date in json format,so i want to know how to convert this into datetime formate "mm/dd/yyyy"
DateTime date1;
DateTime.TryParseExact(formCollection["date"], "MM/dd/yyyy", new CultureInfo("en-US"), DateTimeStyles.None, out date1);
it will not throw any exception.
if there is wrong format, you can compare with DateTime.MinValue, that is it succesfully converted.
How do I format a Microsoft JSON date?
You can use this to get a date from json:
var date = eval(jsonDate.replace(/\/Date\((\d+)\)\//gi, "new Date($1)"));
and then you can use JavaScript Date Format script (1.2 KB when minified and gzipped) to display it as you want.
There is no date data type in JSON, so what you have is a date formatted as a string. Use the ParseExact method to parse the string into a DateTime value.
Then you can use the ToString method or String.Format method using the pattern MM'/'dd'/'yyyy to format the DateTime value into a string.
I have a Session variable in which i have stored one date '22/7/2009'.Now i want to convert value in session to datetime. I tried folowing code:
Session("AppointmentDate") = Request.QueryString("ADate")
Dim s as datetime=Convert.ToDateTime(Session("AppointmentDate"))
But error is showing as 'string is not recognized as a valid datetime'.
Can anybody help me to convert value in Session to date?
Why don't you put the value into the session as a DateTime?
Failing that, use :-
Use :-
DateTime.ParseExact(
myDateString,
"d/M/yyyy",
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture);
Where myDateString contains your value from Session["AppointmentDate"]
Use DateTime.ParseExact to specify the date format string. I think it'd be something like:
dateValue = Date.ParseExact(dateString, "d", frFR, DateTimeStyles.None)
or
dateValue = Date.ParseExact(dateString, "dd/M/yyyy", enUS, DateTimeStyles.None)
I think you need to store your date as 22/07/2009 so that Convert.ToDateTime() could recognize it.
