Answer 1

How about?

DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yy")

, alternatively you should investigate Culture .

Answer 2

You can use the string format parameter of the ToString method to achieve any format you like, like this:

string title_row = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yy");
//01/08/11

Answer 3

For example using DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy)

Answer 4

DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yy"); should get you the required format

ToShortDateString() is governed by the culture settings and the display format is derived from the current culture, so to get it in the desired format pass in the appropriate formatting.
