Answer 1

For date

string dateFormate = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern;

For time

string timeFormate = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortTimePattern;

Answer 2

Try this

using System.Globalization;

...
...
...

var systemDateFormat = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat;

var timePattern = systemDateFormat.FullDateTimePattern;

Answer 3

If you want to detect the format of date and time set for current instance you can use following method.

using System.Globalization;

.

var systemFormat = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat;

var CurrentSystemDateTimePatttern= systemFormat.FullDateTimePattern;

But if you are looking for you own custom format regardless of system format you can use following method...

DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") // Where MM is Month, dd is day and yyyy is Year in 4 Digit.
