Match A Certain DateTime Value With Current System DateTime
May 7, 2010
I'm trying to match a certain DateTime value with the current system DateTime. I have a timer and a label on a form. Timer interval is set to 1000. When the form loads, the timer starts ticking. As soon as the current DateTime matches the value of the variable, it shows a message in the label. When I'm writing the following code, the values don't match even if the current system DateTime is equal to the variable. Label1 isn't showing 'Times Matched':[code]The default format of 'Now' is the same as I have stored in dtmVar variable. So there's no question of format mismatch. Does that mean 'Now' is not actually a DateTime property? Provided, my O.S. is Windows Vista Ultimate and all date/time settings are set to default.

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick Dim dtmNow As DateTime
[Code]....
Why is it so? The default format of 'Now' is the same as I have stored in dtmVar variable. So there's no question of format mismatch. Does that mean 'Now' is not actually a DateTime property? Provided, my O.S. is Windows Vista Ultimate and all date/time settings are set to default.
Below query works fine for me until I apply Where condition for Hour with attribute Id = '06/02/2009 12:00CDT'. I need to get the max temp for today's date only, and I am not able to use the Where condition in the date field.
I have to match string like "DAY1","DAY2","DAY3"....."DAY31" with regex in vb.net. I tried something like this - ^?DAY(0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])$ but it did not work.
The pattern should have succesfull match if the source string is either DAY1 or DAY2 or DAY3 to DAY31 like so.
datetime1 and datetime2now two fields are have data ( date )in table recordi want to update only datetime2 is an emptyi am using visual basic 2010 ( visual studio 2010
Im working on my first n-tier application. I am trying to serialize a structure and Im getting an error"Soap Serializer does not support serializing Generic Types : System.Nullable`1[System.DateTime]."Here is the structure that is being serialized Namespace Structures
<Serializable()> _ Public Structure structAllergy Public AllergyID As String Public ProfileID As String

The bold line is the line that is throwing the error.
I am building an application that needs to store different time of day values in dateTime fields of an Access database.I am trying to enter the time value's via a DataGridView using TextBoxColomn s.The coloms are formatted with the defaultCellStyle property to show only the time part of the datetime.After i save the entered data and look in the database itself, i see not only the time, but also the (current) date in the datetimefields. This raises a problem when i want to compare the timevalues later on in the functionality of the program i am building.(Of course it is simple to seperate the date and time part in coding of the program, but it would be more elegant (i think) if i could just save only the time part in the database (and have the date part of de datetimes left to 0))I have tryed via the CellFormatting and the CellParsing events, but no luck.I am new to visual basic and probebly missing out on something.
I try to compare Datetime.Now with a Datetime variable I set, using the Datetime.CompareTo() method. I use a timer to compare these every second and display the result, but as the current time approaches the time I set, the result changes from 1 to -1, but never 0, which means these two are never equal. I'm suspecting the Datetime structure contains milliseconds?
Assume the following program is started at 1:59:01 AM on 3/13/2011 in the United States. The first time Timer1 ticks what will be the value of the TimeSpan (ts)?

I'm trying to add the date and time of Today into a Sql-database-field that has the datetype datetime.
[Code]...
the msgbox gives me the following result: 29/01/2011 18:49:21 my sqlException gives me the following error: 102 - Incorrect syntax near '18'. Is it better that i set the datatype to char in my sql database? It's maybe a bit easier? When I do that, can I calculate with these date?
Is there any difference between using the Microsoft.VisualBasic.DateAndTime.Now compared to the System.DateTime.Now? I seem to remember reading something that said the MS.VB namespace was for legacy use only, and was much slower than using the native .net classes.
To populate my database I have been using the builtin SQLite command for datetime:INSERT INTO samples (timestamp, sample_value) Values(datetime('now','localtime'), ...)When I look at this on my Mac using a SQLite Reader called Base I see the following timestring:
I'm working on a project that's going to be deployed via .NET on Windows and via Mono on Linux; the same data needs to be exchangeable between the platforms, including where platform A is Little-Endian and platform B is Big-Endian.Where text is concerned, I know ASCII/Unicode is natively Big-Endian, so there's no problem with that.Where numbers are concerned, I know that byte arrays have to be reversed on Big-Endian platforms to store the data in Little-Endian format.But what exactly is the 64 bit value output from System. Date Time.ToBinary?Is this a number representing the number of seconds elapsed since Jan 1 1970, is this some kind of serialized attribute that outputs some DotNET-recognizable value, or what?Does this byte array need to be handled differently in Big and Little Endian environments?It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.
Weird problem that just started, I am using an OleDbCommnad to create a dataadapter then fill a table everything from a .csv file, works fine except no dates are coming over? I added a datagrid view to my project just to see and any column that should have a date value is empty. I confirmed that the column is of System.DateTime value so I am at a complete loss?
my form need to show the current date when click on button. the code inside the button is TextBox1.text = System.DateTime.Now.After clicking, the textbox show "9/29/2009 4:32:10 PM" may i know is it possible for me to show only the date and also to change the format to dd/mm/yyyy?

I am looping through a list of DateTime variables and have got the .ToUniversalTime variable. I want to find out from the list which is the closest one approaching Now.ToUniversalTime but am having difficulty trying to work it out I had it looping through like this but this isn't much good as I only want to return the one that is the closest approaching to the system time. If TodaysCard(i).eventDate.ToUniversalTime < Now.ToUniversalTime
I have a text string like this which I will need to parse: FriMar1200:00:00EST2010 And I used the following Date.ParseExact("FriMar1200:00:00EST2010", "dddMMMddHH:mm:sszzzyyyy", Nothing) And it is giving me a A first chance exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in mscorlib.dll error.

I have got a MySQL database that has got some dates stored in a Date format (YYYY-MM-DD) however when i try and import the data i get an error saying: "Unable to convert MySQL date/time value to System.DateTime"
I'm using VB .NET & SQL Express 2005.I was hoping someone could help me figure this out, I'm trying to search a table between two dates. The table has a datetime column and I am using VS .NET 2005 DateTimePicker control. I'm not getting any errors, but I'm not getting any results either..
In my vb.net winform application, I am moving the file from one folder to another. I need to store the datetimevalue when the transfer has been done. Later I need to show this DateTime value in my Grid. Here is the code i have written, but not able to store the datetime value.
the last date was saved on database is: 6/13/2012 12:27:30 PM
In my DateTime Now is:6/13/2012 01:27:57 AM
but, when I execute this function, it always say:"Date has been manually modified, Please Set to Valid DateTime" But, DateTime Now is NOT lessthan the Date from my Database. What's wrong?
