Before I used VB 6, now I Upgraded to VB 2008.
VB6 Code
sdate = DateToString(dtpicker1 - 1)
edate = DateToString(dtpicker2)
Above code is working fine.
After Upgraded to VB 2008
sdate = DateToString(dtpicker1._Value)
edate = DateToString(dtpicker2._Value)
If I Put
sdate = DateToString(dtpicker1._Value - 1)
It is showing Error.
How can I write a code like dtpicker1 - 1
Title pretty much says it all. How do I format the date of a dateandtimepicker to insert it into the SQL date datatype?

View 1 RepliesI want to save datetimepicker value of date and time in two separate text files. Currently, when I select a date from datetimepicker and save it in a text file it saves both date and time as below:
5/11/2011 8:25:06 PM What I would like to happen is as below: Datefile.txt saves 5/11/2011 Timefile.txt saves 8:25:06 PM Alternative solution that can work for me would be, if the time (only the TIME) can be modified after saving as below: saved datetime into text file is 5/11/2011 8:25:06 PM
How can I modify the time only to say 12:00:00 PM. By doing so I would like to keep time as 12:00:00 but date can be changed by the user using the datetime picker.

I am putting together a kind of "build your own report" page that will have up to 20 options for people to select.Each option, selected by checkbox or dropdown (probably) will add on to the SQL data source to pull only the information needed and display it in a gridview.For instance, the initial query is:
Select
C.Name,
From Clients as C
[code].....
How can I do this, preferably referring to the column using the column name of "My Position" and not a numeric...If this can NOT be done....The other option is to query everything and format it - and then hide columns in the gridview based on items that are not checked. Would this be easier? (Doesn't sound as efficient to me).

I'm updating an old VB net application and trying to refactor some of the logic as I go. The app looks for data from a single date across a few tables and writes that view to a file.
Writing the query in SQL I'd get the equivalent of
SELECT * FROM table
WHERE CAST(FLOOR(CAST(table.date AS float))AS datetime) = '15-Jul-2010'
Ideally I'd use
SELECT * FROM table WHERE date=@input
and add a date object as a parameter to a System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand instance
Are those two comparable? Will I get the results I expect?
I am using VB 2008 and want to record a start date and time and then the stop date and time in a rich text box, i can get the start time into the box but so far can only stop the time instead of 2 seperate times, what i have is a drop down box with a list of computers 1-10 i was trying to get it so you picked a certain computer and that went into the text box then you started the timer and that was recorded, finally you stopped the timer and that was recorded but as i am a total newbie it does not work

This seems so simple, but I can't get the answer. I need to get the current time in an hh:mm:ss or sss military format. By military format, I mean that if it is past noon, the hour is the PM time plus 12 (1 PM is 13, 5 PM is 17). I found this bit of code:

It returns the hour in AM/PM format. That is, if it is 4 PM, it returns 04 rather than 16). I can't find documentation on the hh:mm:ss mask. In fact I can't find a simple discussion on how to make the time of day property return time in various formats. After 3 hours of futzing around,
