[RESOLVED] [2005] How to display Date and/or Time ?

I have Textbox1 on my form in which i want to display current Date and/or Time in a custom format.

Textbox1.Text = Now is returning me the date and time in a prefixed format

How do i do this if i want the textbox1 to show this: 31/12/07, 22:50 ?

rough guess as I have only looked into vb.net :

Code:

---

dim dte as date = now

txtDate.text = dte.day & " " & dte.month & " " 'etc... properties available  on intellisense

---

The toString method allows you to specify a format
Date.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yy HH:mm")

so,

Code:

---

Textbox1.Text = Date.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yy HH:mm")

---

Just do this:

vb Code:

Me.TextBox1.Text = Date.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy, HH:mm")

Thank you, that did the trick !

What if i want to set the same kind of value in DateTimePicker control ???

SEt the Format Property to Custom and the CustomFormat Property to dd/MM/yy HH:mm

Please don't post the same question more than once.
