I am new to the forums and am wondering if anyone is able to help me with something that I have been struggling to get my head around for ages.
I am using Visual Studio 2010 VB and I have a text box where a user can enter a date eg. 10/10/2010
I need to convert this string into a date that I can pass into a date column in Microsoft SQL Server 2008.
Is anyone able to show me some code example or point me in the right direction?
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")
how can i convert these datatypes: date to string and integer to string.Because it must be in a string datatype when I display it in a datetimepicker and textbox.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to convert a string into Date (to put it later into INSERT command). My problem is that the string I am reading is always different (there is no rule what format it is going to be - as this is user-dependent).I found such piece of code on the stackoverflow:
DateTime myDate =
DateTime.ParseExact("2009-05-08 14:40:52,531",
"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,fff",
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
but in my case it will not work as I don't know what kind of format I am going to import.Is there any universal import function which checks all known formats? If now how should I write it?
