Is the first day of the month not always the 1. ? What have you already tried?

Only on some special years this value can reach up to 1.42. :-)

You can find the first and last date using this code

Dim dt As DateTime = DateTime.Now
        TextBox1.Text = dt.Date
        TextBox2.Text = Format(dt.AddDays(-(dt.Day - 1)), "MM/dd/yyyy")
        Dim LastdayDate As Date = dt.AddMonths(1)
        TextBox3.Text = Format(LastdayDate.AddDays(-(LastdayDate.Day)), "MM/dd/yyyy")

try it

Please see the top answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24245523/getting-the-first-and-day-of-a-month-using-a-given-datetime-instance[^].

The idea is very simple. If you have some point in time, you know its month. All you need to do is to create another point of time with the same month and first day. It makes you the 1st day. For a last day, you need a trick. Jump one month up, to get first day of next month. What would be the last day of previous month? Yesterday.
