PC Info System - How To Retrieve Date And Time Format
Jul 27, 2011
I am trying to read the pc system information so that I can retrieve the time and date format.
My code below:
Dim Info As System.Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo
Info = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat
Debug.WriteLine(Info.LongDatePattern)
Retruns in debug: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy"
So I have 2 questions;
1) Why is there, a dd after the MMMM.
2) My company has small franchise branch offices round the world - France, USA, etc. What I am trying to do is get the date format so I can decide what country I am in - then when I print out the date on my order labels I can change the date format to suit Americans or Europeans etc.

When retrieving rows from an SQL Server table I use the following code select mydate, Customer, Details from sales where mydatetime >= '" & format (somedate, "MMM d, yyyy h:mm:ss tt") & "'"This works fine unless the clients computers windows Region setting is 'English (New Zealand)'The default time format in windows Region and Language for New Zealand is [code]On computers with this region setting I get an SQL Error 'Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string'..If I manually select the other option for AM symbol, PM symbol in Region and Language i.e AM PM the all works fine again..What format string can I use so that above code always works, even if the Region time format is a.m. / p.m.

I am attempting to import data in a batch from an Excel Worksheet to a Sql Server database. Everything works except for the one date field in the spreadsheet. The date returned is off by four years from the value in the spreadsheet. Example: The Excel sheet has a date 10/24/2010 14:18, but when I look at the column in my query, the date is 10/23/2006 2:18. This pattern, 4 years and 1 day earlier, is repeated for every row in the worksheet.
The Excel column comes to me as a custom type, formatted m/d/yyyy h:mm. I receive this from an outside vendor and having them change the column is not going to be my simplest solution.
For what it's worth, the relevent part of the query is:
Select [Date Created] From MyWorksheet

I have a problem. I'm making a alarm clock and I need a way of converting a "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss" format into a date time format. This means I'll be able to compare the dates in a listbox using the for each function, to the current date and see whever it has passed and therfore the alarm should be deleted. It is currently in a string form so I can't use < and > to compare it to the current date as that is in a date form. I've tried using CDate but it doesn't work as it only will convert these formats:
"August 12, 2004", "2:07:30 PM" and "August 12, 2004 2:07:30 PM"

Days = Dat2.Subtract(Dat1).Days

Dat2 = today
Dat1 = installed date
to trace the days of a program installed in user's computer.However, the user can changes the system time of his computer to a advancing date. How can I get a SNTP time from internet to solve this problem?

The Now() function in VB.NET returns date and time which is different from the system time that I see on the right-bottom on the notification bar. It is 15 hours slower than the system time. Has anyone ever met this problem? I'm using .NET 2.0.

I am showing some data in a DataGridView using an access table. Here is my
Dim ConnString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=....db.mdb"
Dim SQLString As String = "SELECT * FROM Table1"
Dim OleDBConn1 As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(ConnString)
Dim DataSet1 As New DataSet()
[Code] ....
The problem is that there is one column in my access database that is formatted as date/time however the only values in the access is time. When I display this table in the DataGridView, it adds this random date from years ago in front of that time. How do I reformat this DataGridView column to only display the time and not the date?

I use following code to download a web page source code in my project:
Private Function dlwebFile(ByVal sUrl As String, ByVal sFile As String) As Boolean
Try
Dim wr As HttpWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(sUrl)
wr.Method = "POST"[code].....
The web page I am trying to download is a intranet site. I am periodically downloading the web page for archiving purpose for future reference. The web page will list the current active jobs/projects we work. We process 100's of jobs everyday. The list item will have the Project id, Project name, Project deadline, etc.The download works fine. the web page is downloaded locally. The problem is the date/time format is changed to some other format. If I view the web page in browser, the deadline of one of the project shows as "7/15 03:00".
However, the downloaded webpage shows the deadline of that project as "Wed Jul 14 16:30:00 CDT 2010". I believe it shows in CDT timezone. Also, it shows couple of other timezone too. I think the project might be created from those countries. I am in India timezone.

My current program is reading a XML doc and using it then moving it to a different directory to be archived once it is finished using the xml.
I want to be able (upon completion) move and rename the file to a new folder, I want the folder to be the current date/time as well.
So basically have 4/4/2011 9:56AM.xml in the folder 4/4/2011 9:56AM.
getting the function DateTime.Now in a format that can be saved. Folders and files cannot contain the " / " or " : "
A more Sql server type of date would be fine like 24-Jun-89 13:32:22 but I don't know how to get something like that.
