Dear All,

I am using the following code in two places in my ASP.NET Website.

1. In the Webpage - In Button.Click Event
2. Defined as a Function in a module in the website

Code Used:

C#

Dim n as Date
n = DateAdd(DateInterval.Month, 1, Now())
Msgbox ("Now it is " & now() & ", Due Date is " & n)

When this code is executed in situation 1, I get the following output
Now it is 11/25/2012 14:35:00, Due Date is 12/25/2012 14:35:00

But when the same code is executed in situation 2, I get the following output
Now it is 11/25/2012 14:35:00, Due Date is 12:00:00

Pl advice where I am going wrong.

Thanks and regards.

Solution 1

Have you tried to debug and see what value comes in n?

You can try using ToString function as follows:

VB

Msgbox ("Now it is " & now().ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") & ", Due Date is " & n.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"))
