Problem databinding an ASP.Net AJAX toolkit MaskedEditExtender - asp.net

I have a database that contains a date and we are using the MaskedEditExtender (MEE) and MaskedEditValidator to make sure the dates are appropriate. However, we want the Admins to be able to go in and change the data (specifically the date) if necessary.
How can I have the MEE field pre-populate with the database value when the data is shown on the page? I've tried to use 'bind' in the 'InitialValue' property but it doesn't populate the textbox.
Thanks.

We found out this morning why our code was mishandling the extender. Since the db was handling the date as a date/time it was returning the date in this format 99/99/9999 99:99:99 but we had the extender mask looking for this format 99/99/9999 99:99
Mask="99/99/9999 99:99:99"
the above code fixed the problem.
thanks to everyone for their help.

Are you referring to the asp.Net Ajax toolkit extensions at:

If so have you checked that your data is coming back in the correct format? It will have to match your date format in order to be displayed.

How to stop Time data being appended to Today() (powerapps and excel)

I am trying to use powerapps to create a submission form for users.
The issue is that I have one field for submission date.
All I want is the short date added to the table column when the user clicks submit.
What I get is the shortdate with
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSOZ
I have tried:
Text(Today(), "[%-en-US]YYYY-MM-DD")
Text(Today(), DateTimeFormat.ShortDate)
Left(Text(Today(), "[%-en-US]YYYY-MM-DD"),10)
Left(Text(Today(), DateTimeFormat.ShortDate),10)
I have tried setting the excel table field to "Text"
I have tried setting it back to date and using just the short date without conversion.
Is there any end to this madness?
Thanks!
Text(Today(),DateTimeFormat.ShortDate)
This should do the trick;
DateValue(Text(Now()))

Get Date Value as DD/MM/YYYY from database

I am using the "[Datatype(Datatype.date)" data annotation for allowing the user to select the date and it's selected in this format, "DD/MM/YYYY".
However, the date is sent backwards to the database. The image below illustrates this.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Correct date selected
Backwards date sent to data
Ended off using Moment which is amazing at formatting dates.

Datetime Parameter In CRM report run invalid

I'm Working with SSRS Report in CRM Then I have problem about DateTime Parameter before run report below.
First, I choose date from Datetime Picker below
Then TextBox show
In fact It's should show Only date But why it's show Date & Time
And after i Choose anything in parameter section Parameter always refresh and I surely I set automatic determine in .rdl file (from my experience its should not refresh)
Second, When I choose first date of month
TextBox show
Its show.
8-Jan-15
So My Question is.
Why Text Box show Invalid value.
Why its always refresh when i choose paremeter.
And How to fix it.
Thank you.
(I think I not happen for .rdl file)
I don't know CRM but in SSRS I would say
This seems to be a bug in CRM with using other date formats: https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/117/t/138318
Parameters refresh in case other parameters are dependent on the previous parameter.
You can't fix the refresh, you can try changing your system date format but that's not a good fix. You can try this:

ASP.NET Differentiate between Date and Datetime Fields

I have an ASP.NET form(MVC3/Razor) and on the the form I want to alter how a date field displays from a datetime field. I.e. in some of the data columns the time is significant and I want the date and time to show, in others it is irrelevant and I just want the date to display. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance

Two ways: 1) Using a UIHint attribute to tell the field whether or not to render as a Date or DateTime and then having an EditorTemplate to differentiate the two. Or 2) Use the EditorFor extension method and tell it explicitly which EditorTemplate to use.
The same can go for DisplayTemplates when you want to truncate the time.
Here's an example from SO: ASP.NET MVC Editor-Templates/UIHint with parameters
You can use String.Format to format the date and time in exactly the way you want.
string.Format("{0:dd-MMM-yy}", yourDate);
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kb3ddd4.aspx
You can format each appropriate column as you want. For example:
#string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}",DateTimeField)
and/or
#string.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss}",DateTimeField)

<asp:ControlParamenter /> and nonstandard (en-US) DateTime binding

Database date format: "yyyy-MM-dd"
C# default date output: "MM/dd/yyyy"
My date format: "dd/MM/yyyy"
How do I use the asp:SqlDataSource with an asp:ControlParameter connected to an asp:TextBox using my date format? Specifically, I wanted to know
if there was a way to do this without having it done in code-behind
if I'm bound to code-behind, how to do it?
I've read about the Culture class, but I'm not sure that's the right path to explore. I've also had a check on some stackoverflow posts and came accross this Binding Date of DateTime in a control, but I've never seen this structure of Text formatting before in ASP.NET.
Thanks in advance,
