Need to convert a string to normal datetime format so it can be correctly inserted onto a datetime type field. String Format: 4/21/2010 4:43:03 PM Example: 2010-04-21 16:43:03.000 I have clarified question: The need is to change format and not type.
View 4 RepliesHere's the basic premise though: I need to convert a GUID-like string to a different format as shown in these examples:
Original String:

Converted String

It works, but it doesnt seem very well written... Oh and if you are wondering why I wrote my own ReverseString method rather than just using the Reverse extension method on the String class - It seems to return a collection of chars rather than a string (god knows why) and I couldnt find any easy/obvious way to convert this collection of chars back to a string (I thought just CStr would do it but apparently not)

View 3 RepliesI wish to convert my string in format dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss to a DateTime of the same format.
Dim ukCulture As System.Globalization.CultureInfo = New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB")
Dim myDateTime As DateTime
myDateTime = DateTime.ParseExact("18/05/2010 23:42:10, "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss", ukCulture)
When I step through this code the variable myDateTime is 05/18/2010 23:42:10 it appears that the dd/mm is the wrong way around and I cant work out how to correct this.

I have a function that is getting passed a String and a DataRow.The String is a custom formatter. The idea is to do this
String.Format(passed_in_String, DataRow("ColumnINeed"))
The reason this is being done is at this point we have no idea what the column contains.However, if the formatter is "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}" and the DataRow("ColumnINeed") is an integer containing 42, String.Format is returning: MM/dd/yyyy In this situation I need it to throw an exception instead of returning nonsense.Is there anyway to make String.Format throw an exception if the object does not match what the format string is expecting?
How to convert jpg format into binary format using VB code ?
View 3 RepliesSo I need a format string to pass to String.Format that would "move" the decimal point.I can't perform any math operations before doing the String.Format, so it has to work right off the bat.Basically I'm emulating a formatting string from a proprietary server. In it if I say:
"MR2"
for the value:
12345
The result is:
123.45
I'm close with this, but it's not spot on:
String.Format("{0:#0.##}", 12345)
an extra, but not necessary... there is also MR2Z, which moves the decimal 2 left, but if the value is 0 "" is returned.
All of my regional settings in control panel are set to UK but when I retrieve a date from an SQL database (run from my PC) in my program, it appears in the MM-DD-YYYY format rather than the DD-MM-YYYY format that I expect.
After a bit of troubleshooting I found that this is because of the fact that SQL server always stores its dates in that format - so then when my program reads the data from the database it interprets it as being the US format.How can I convert this to UK format bearing in mind I am working with Date objects not strings?

It formats the Timespan to this format 49:34:20. How can I add hr mn sec to the String.Format above? or there's another easy way?
