Pass “dd-MMM-yyyy” to datetime by post method

Question

How Can I pass "dd-MMM-yyyy" Date format to DateTime by Post method?

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:dd-MMM-yyyy}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]
public DateTime? SomeDate { get; set; }

Answer 1

Format date from model:

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:MMM-yyyy}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]
public DateTime? SomeDate { get; set; }

You can format date in View file by following way

<span>@Convert.ToDateTime(SomeDate).ToString("MMM-yyyy")</span>
