it's telling me that I cannot show the DateTimePicker1 value in the label because the types are different. How do I tell the label to convert the date format for display? I've tried .string() but it didn't like that.
Title pretty much says it all. How do I format the date of a dateandtimepicker to insert it into the SQL date datatype?
View 20 RepliesI'm having some trouble converting the format of a date in .NET 2008...
Dim currMonth As Date
currMonth = Format(Now, "mmm")
From this code, I need to extract today's date in the format of "mmm" (so it should return.. "Apr")This worked in vb6 but not in .Net, I keep getting some sort of conversion error.. I looked at using theformatdatetime option but it doesnt have the format that I need... only short date/long date...that kind of thing.
I use following codes to to convert string to date. In messagebox it displays correct date with format but in textbox it displays only #12:00:00 AM #. How to send date to textbox1 from variable mydate.

Dim formats As String() = {"dd/MM/yyyy", "dd/MM/yyyy"}
Dim dateObject As DateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(dateString, formats, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, Globalization.DateTimeStyles.NoCurrentDateDefault)
MessageBox.Show(dateObject.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"))

Is it possible to put a label on a form and automatically have it removed after a certain date?
View 5 RepliesAssign the current Date to a label.
Example, if the current date was 25th December. Then the lblDate.Text property will be set to 25.
Also, how would you do this to get the month, but only the first three letters of the month?
Using the example above, the lblDate.Text property will be set to Dec.
How do I approach this? I'm wondering how I could write a new date to a label every four weeks. If I establish a start date, saved somewhere, I need the label to say 'Your next payment is due on: (a Friday, every four weeks ahead). Is there some way to use the date time picker using date difference? I would like this to continue updating so it shows a new payment date every fourth Friday. My difficulty is that the calculation is 13 payments a year, not 12 so I cannot just pick the same date each month.

View 1 RepliesI'm using date in the format dd-mm-yyyy and I need to convert a string inthis format to a date type.My string is "18-01-2010" but when I do the conversion using dim TargetDate as date=CDate(TgDstr).where TgDstr is "18-01-2010", the resutant TargetDate, as note in the debugger window, is #1/18/2010# rather than #18/1/2010# which I expected.What change in code should I made to get the desired result?

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"
Im trying to write this converter with VB.NET...
View 1 RepliesThis should be really simple and I figured out how to do it in VBA but it's different in .NET. I have a 3 digit Julian date that I would like converted to a regular date (Gregorian). So if the number is 91, then that means April 1st (non-leap year) and if it's 304 then that means October 31st (also non-leap year). In VBA I was using the Day and Month functions to help me get an output to make it mm/dd format.

No errors and all the variables are returning what i am expecting but it doesn't change the forecolor.
I am using this datetimepicker by Trent Richardson, I can get the date time picker to work, however after the date is changed i need it to be put into a hidden asp.net control that is in an update panel.

Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.Label'
Currently using VS2008, VB.NET, SQL.
I have a FormView from a Data Source that is getting some fields that are stored as Decimals in the SQL Database.
I am grabbing the field from the FormView as such:
Dim AvgTicketL As Label = CType(frmMerchantProfile.FindControl("F10Label"), Label)
I need to take this value, and convert it to an Integer, then send it along to an API. I have the API Calls done, tested and working, but I'm getting an error as when it is getting this value, the API is returning "Must be an Integer" error.
What I have tried so far:
Dim AvgTicketL As Label = CType(frmMerchantProfile.FindControl("F10Label"), Label)
Dim AvgTicket1 As Integer
AvgTicket1 = Double.Parse(AvgTicket.Text)
Do something with AvgTicket1
I have also attempted to Round the Value, then convert it and call it - no luck.
Checking the value of AvgTicket1 (Writing it out to a Label or Response.Write) shows "100", where the database value was 100.00. But the API is still getting 100.00, apparently. Any other conversion method that I've attempted states errors that the Label cannot be converted to Integer.
What are some methods I can successfully convert this value to an integer from a label?
I have a variable which I called ElapsedTime. I press a button and it displays the time in seconds since clicking the button, into a label . I did it with HTML
Private Sub Timer2_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer2.Tick
LblElapsedTime1.Text = ElapsedTime
ElapsedTime = ElapsedTime + 1
End Sub
Private Sub BtnStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnStart.Click
Timer2.Enabled = True
End Sub
This updates every second a bit like a simple stop watch. Great so far, because I do need the elapsed time (in seconds) for later use in my app. However, whilst elapsed time is being displayed in this label on the screen I want it to be shown in HH:MM:SS format. How can I convert it into a new variable " ElapsedTime2 " so that I can show it in the desired format yet still retain my original " ElapsedTime " variable for later.

The user will select an entry in a gridview, which then redirects them to a form that is populated with the data from the selected row (thus making the gridview editable in a more user friendly way).

View 3 RepliesI have been unable to correctly convert a string to date. The string is read from a text file and placed into a string, below is a snippet of how the text file is read until the date is field is read:
Dim varOrderNo As String
Dim varDate As String
Static Dim currentrow(20) As String
[Code] .....
I have then tried loads of different ways to convert it to a Date so when I then write it to a SQL Database it enters as a date. The string read from the text file is in the format of 13122011. If I don't try to change it to a Date before writing to SQL it doesn't recognise it as a date and sets the field to 01/01/1900. I have tried and searched loads online and everything i try should work but doesn't.
Dim varDateConvert As Date
varDateConvert = CDate(varDate)
varDateConvert = Convert.ToDateTime(varDate)
varDateConvert = DateTime.Parse(varDate)
All of the above cause my program to drop out / crash at the point of the converting.
I have also tried to format the string to insert the '/' before converting:
txtDate.Text = varDate.Substring(0, 2) & "/" & varDate.Substring(2, 2) & "/" & varDate.Substring(4, 4)
varDateConvert = DateTime.Parse(txtDate.Text, Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-GB"))
The result for the above is:
From File: 13122011
Substring: 13/12/2011
Convert: 12/13/2011 - Crashes here

Similarly when the user clicks on the 'convert to date' button , it must subtract the given days(or weeks or months or years) from Todays date and set it to the maskedbox
