Try:

C#

string value = DateTime.Now.ToString("ddMMyyhhmmss");

Just noticed - you said "invoice number"?
There are normally rules about invoice numbers, in that they must be sequential (so that the Tax office can be sure that there aren't any missing) - this does not do that, and would probably be a bad idea as a result.

String invoice_number = DateTime.Now.ToString("ddMMyyhhmmss");
label.Text = invoice_number.ToString();

Please consider here
MM-two digits of month.
mm - minutes.

so here you should use the format

ddMMyyhhmmss

dd-two digit date
MM-two digit month
yy-two digit year
hh - hours in ditis
mm- minutes in digits
ss-seconds in digis.

Use This Code:

C#

int ctr, len;
            string code;
            DataRow drr;
            string qry = "select top 1 id from client_bill_Tb order by id desc";
            DataTable dt = cbbal.GetData(qry);
            len = dt.Rows.Count - 1;
            drr = dt.Rows[len];
            code = drr["id"].ToString();
            ctr = Convert.ToInt32(code);

            if ((ctr >= 0) && (ctr < 9))
            {
                ctr = ctr + 1;
                txtInvoice.Text = ctr + DateTime.Now.ToString("/MMyyyy");
            }
            else if ((ctr >= 9) && (ctr < 100))
            {
                ctr = ctr + 1;
                txtInvoice.Text = ctr + DateTime.Now.ToString("/MMyyyy");
            }
            else if (ctr >= 99)
            {
                ctr = ctr + 1;
                txtInvoice.Text = ctr + DateTime.Now.ToString("/MMyyyy");
           }
