It shows the Hours as 7 . How to prefix a 0 in case of single digit hour. So that the textbox content be 07

Answer 1

You need to use the D2 format option and pass the value through as an html atttribute:

This can be done as follows:

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.ShortBufferHour, new { @maxlength = "2",Style="text-align:center;", Value=String.Format("{0:D2}",Model.ShortBufferHour) })
