System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern()
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.
example: inside regional date format setting i set "Short date format dd/MMM/yyyy" and inside vb.net program i set "strSQL = strSQL & ",'" & Date(Date.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")) & "'" ----> working fine. if user changed the regional date format setting to other format like "mm/dd/yy" facing problem during saving record into sql table. error date conversion. It's possible to avoid using computer regional date format from vb.net? or have any other way...

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 am using ASP.NET with SQL Server 2005.
My date get saved in the database with data type = "smalldatetime".
I am displaying the date value into a text box called txtDate with a Reader......
Dim conn As Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
Dim Comm As Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
Dim reader As Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader
[Code]....
But currently my date get displayed as "2008/06/30 12:00:00 AM" and i want to display it as "30 June 2008".
For example, today is 05/11/2009, I have two text box.
Actually it means that whatever what date i choose within the current month, the two textbox will display the last three months date.
For Example, Current Month is November 2009 , Textbox 1 will show 01/08/2009, Textbox 2 will show 31/10/2009.
Another example is Current Month is January 2009, Textbox 1 will show 01/10/2009, Textbox 2 will show 31/12/2008.
May I know how the vb.net code should look like?
how I can ensure that conversion of a date to a string and a string to a date will give me the same date format.
For example:
Code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim d As Date = Date.Now
[code].....
I'm actually only interested in the date part as the label text shows so f is more than I want.But also, the day and month are reversed.
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"

View 10 RepliesAll 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?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to write a program which compares the difference between any date in the past and the system date, showing how many days have elapsed since that date.This is what I've got so far:

That's what it looks like so far. I was wondering how you can automate the top label so it automatically comes up with the date when the program is run.Plus, I need to know how to display the dates difference (how many days have elapsed between the system date and the user's chosen date) in the bottom label.

MsgBox("File was last modified on " & infoReader.LastWriteTime)
This gest the Date and Time, but I want just the Date not the time.
