I am manipulating xml with lots of date of birth. XMLs are already loaded onto datatable. The format we need is "dd/MM/yyyy" The dates are messy such as "dd-MM-yyyy" or "dd.MM.yyyy" so I am thinking to write a function that will auto correct on a set of predefined separators to a correct format. so I am thinking to do something like this but of course, this won't just work.i cannot use replace to replace an array. If i can just do that, everything would be fine. Hope someone can point out a way around. [code]
I have developed a vb.net application, which searches for different kinds of dates from a document. When i test the app on my Windows 7, VS2010 PC, the dd/mm/YYYY date read as string is correctly converted to valid date format, and then it can perform followingfunctiontstimespan =Date.Now.Subtract(Convert.ToDateTime(DesiredMatch.Value)).DurationIt works fine on development PC. But when i test the application on my client PC having Windows XP, it throws an error 'string was not detrmined as valid date time windows'.
On one server now.date() gives date like '08/06/2012 00:00:00' and on other gives '6/8/2012 12:00:00 AM'. I need the date like '08/06/2012 00:00:00'. I can not use now.date.tostring("dd/MM/yyyy") as it is at too many places.
these are dates. They have been given to me by data dump into and xls. I am reading in the values into my app and need to run date calculations on them.

I was hoping to be able to come up with a formatting code to use for the row so that it would convert any of these into the MM/dd/yyyy format and anything else just leave untouched. Unfortunately the scope of my VB skills do not compliment my objective.

I have a calendar on a simple windows form and when I choose a date it will put the date into a textbox with the format YYYY-MM-DD.When I choose a date i look up in a MSAccess database if there is any appointments for the selected date. In the file (where the database query is in) calendar.xsd i can use the query below and all my appontments is listed in my datagrid.<CommandText>SELECT * FROM tbNotification</CommandText>
But If I want to use the selected date that I have in my textbox, i get an error saying that "There is some values or parameters missing" (a simple translation from Swedish, dont know the exact English translation). The Query I try to use is the one below:<CommandText>SELECT * FROM tbNotification WHERE ([Date] = '#'+txtSelDate+'#')</CommandText>
I have tried: - ALOT of syntaxes in the query string for the ## around the date - putting the date as String, as Date etc etc - putting the date as a variable (selDate = txtSelDate.text)
I have now tried everything I can think of. Does anyone of you guys a solution for my problem?

I need to ask your assistance in converting string to datetype, from 'dd/mm/yyyy' to 'yyyy-mm-dd'.The user could key in either the 'dd/mm/yyyy' format or 'yyyy-mm-dd' format in a textbox.the system would check for both format and convert both to the 'yyyy-mm-dd' date format, to be able to save the value in a datetype field in a MySQL table
