[Resolved] System.IO.FileInfo - Date Modified

[jordan23]

I am trying to get the same date/time as you see in windows explorer for a file and I am using the following code.


FileInfo myInfo = new FileInfo(listBox1.Items[i].ToString()) ;
myInfo.Refresh();
string dateInfo = myInfo.LastWriteTime.Date.ToLongDateString() + " " + myInfo.LastWriteTime.Date.ToLongTimeString();



The date is correct but the time is always 12:00. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

It is due to the 'Date' when you are converting to a string. However, you don't need to concatenate like that. This should give you what you want.

myInfo.LastWriteTime.ToString("F")

nmadd is quite correct. The MSDN library has all the details of format strings for formatting dates, times and numbers.
