Convert Datetime To Date In C#
takes a minute: Sign up “String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.” Error occur in Window 7 computer environment up vote 2 down vote favorite Good day All, Before this, I have a c# system in a VM with Microsoft http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17953205/string-was-not-recognized-as-a-valid-datetime-when-converting-to-datetime Window XP. I have some code to convert string to date time, the following is part of my code : DateTime allowDateTime = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-2); string formatted = allowDateTime.ToString("M/dd/yyyy"); DateTime dt = Convert.ToDateTime(formatted); if (redempDateConvert < dt) td.Text = ""; Until this point, everything is working fine. After that, I move my all source code without any changes, and data base and set it up in my real machine (Window 7). System is working fine, I am still able to log in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19656975/string-was-not-recognized-as-a-valid-datetime-error-occur-in-window-7-compute and control the system like usual. Until today, I have reach to this part, and browser displayed error message : String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. in line 397. Here I displayed my code again (with explanation): DateTime allowDateTime = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-2); string formatted = allowDateTime.ToString("M/dd/yyyy"); DateTime dt = Convert.ToDateTime(formatted); //here is line 397, which is the error happening. if (redempDateConvert < dt) td.Text = ""; I have checked both (VM and my real machine) environment, both running in .Net 4.0. Just curious on why the same code, but there is an error happen in my real machine. Is that I miss out to configure something?

Why not simply DateTime dt = allowedDateTime;? –Lasse V.

Member 71 Points 336 Posts Does Convert.ToDateTime read dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy? May 10, 2007 12:22 PM|multiplex7777|LINK Hi everyone, I struggled for literally the whole day with this problem. Does the C# Convert.ToDateTIme function read date as "dd/mm/yyyy" or "mm/dd/yyyy"? I have the same application on my local machine which I uploaded to my remote shared server. It was working perfectly on my local machine reading "dd/mm/yyyy", but on my remote machine, it seems to read dates as "mm/dd/yyyy". I have the same culture setting "en-GB" on both. I find this date conversion very unpredictable. Can anyone recommend a culture-proof way of reading date strings from a SQL Server 2000 database? Thanks for the help.

I read that Convert.ToDateTime actually calls Parse. What I did instead was this: DateTime dtParam; System.Globalization.CultureInfo enGB = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB"); dtParam = Convert.ToDateTime(strdatetimeparam, enGB); It seems
