I want to convert mm/dd/yyyy
to dd/mm/yyyy
. My application is asp.NET with VB. I tried following code
DateTime.Parse(oldDate.ToString("dd\mm\yyyy"))
But got the error:
"The string was not recognized as a valid dateTime. There is an unknown word starting at index 2"
Can any one give the appropriate code?
In VB:
Dim dt As DateTime = _
DateTime.ParseExact(oldDate, "MM/dd/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
' and then if you want to format it in dd/MM/yyyy format
Dim s As String = dt.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
In C#:
DateTime dt =
DateTime.ParseExact(oldDate, "MM/dd/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
// and then if you want to format it in dd/MM/yyyy format
string s = dt.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy");
You should escape the \ characters.
if oldDate is a DateTime then all you need to do is
Dim oldDate As DateTime = DateTime.Now
Dim odS As String 'old date as string
odS = oldDate.ToString("ddMMyyyy").Insert(4, "\").Insert(2, "\")
changing the string format does not change the DateTime. DateTime's are numbers, not strings.
