hi, try this: DateTime DTime = new DateTime(); DTime =Convert.ToDateTime(DateTime.Today.Date.ToShortDateString()); lblDate.Text = string.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}",DTime); Regards, Royal

Hashtable rec = new Hashtable(); DateTime dob = Convert.ToDateTime(txtdob.Text.Trim()); rec.Add("dob", dob.ToShortDateString()); why the second line not executing .i have gave a brak point to see the flow ,but after the first line its jump to catch()
-
That is because you have an error at runtime. Read the exception to see what is triggering the fault. Regards Si

Hi, DateTime dob = Convert.ToDateTime(txtdob.Text.Trim()); What you should do is provide the format that the txtdob has in it. for example, DateTime dob = Convert.ToDateTime(txtdob.text.trim(), 'dd/MM/yyyy')); See if that works Si

did u try string.format() ? Regards, Royal
-
HI, sorry, can you try: DateTime dob = Date.ParseExact(txtdob.Text.Trim(), "dd/MM/yyyy"); You will need to change the format to match the datetime format entered in your textbox. Si
-
yes i have tried in string format ,the database is in datetime format,its give the error " Error converting data type nvarchar to datetime."

hi, did you try this: DateTime DTime = new DateTime(); DTime =Convert.ToDateTime(DateTime.Today.Date.ToShortDateString()); lblDate.Text = string.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}",DTime); Here, firstly I have converted the string into datetime format then I have changed the format of the date to dd/mm/yyyy. Regards, Royal

i have used this one but getting the same problem
Hashtable rec = new Hashtable();
if (txtdob.Text.Length != 0)
{
DateTime dob = Convert.ToDateTime(txtdob.Text.Trim());
rec.Add("dob", dob.ToShortDateString());
}
is there any problem with my web server? -
hi, Just now I tried running this: DateTime DT = new DateTime(); DT = Convert.ToDateTime(TextBox1.Text.Trim()); TextBox2.Text = Convert.ToString(string.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", DT)); and this worked fine. Regards, Royal

Its better u add a validator to validate the date before updating the date in the table
-
if (txtdob.Text.Length != 0)
{
DateTime dob = new DateTime();
dob=Convert.ToDateTime(txtdob.Text.Trim());
rec.Add("dob", Convert.ToString(string.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", dob)));
}
Errot:::String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. -
Validate the textbox using compare validator before u insert it into the table. For eg:
