I want to convert one DateTime variable into shortDate and again save it into DateTime format. But When I do so, after type conversion I get the timeStamp along with the date, which I don't want.

I think DateTime.Tostring() gives you that. If you dont want the timestamp, I would think youll have to specifically say son like: DateTime.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy").

i am not understand your question properly can you give the example code for that

Example::
DateTime dt=DateTime.Now;//It contains date in 01/08/2012 04:02:00 format ok
Now i want to my date to be as: 01/08/2012 only which we can do by converting it to a String value. But I want it as a DATETIME type only.

DateTime datatype storage will have timestamp in it.

Either you convert it into desired format at the time of retrieval OR save data as a string.

hi see here:

suppose u r value(datetime) in datepicker1 then

(
DateTime dt = new DateTime(datepicker1);
Console.WriteLine (dt.ToString());
Console.WriteLine (dt.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd",
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.DateTimeFormat));

note:here datepicker1 is a DatePicker Control

Convert Datetime into date using c#[^]
