And what does the EntityValidationErrors property tell you?

There's no such thing as a "format" for a DateTime. A format is only applicable in the UI, not in the code or database.

Hi,

Can you try it like below:

C#

bool parsed = false;
DateTime outDate;
parsed = DateTime.TryParseExact(inputDate, "dd-MM-yyyy", CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, DateTimeStyles.None, out outDate);

if(parsed)
{
    usr.DogumTarihi = outDate.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");
}
else
{
    // Invalid date has been passed
}

But remember you will need to use System.Globalization namespace to use this.

Please let me know.

Thanks.

First, find out what are the errors you are getting. Then come back with the result. This piece of code might help you finding out the errors:

C#

try
{
    // put your code here for saving or updating record.
}
catch (DbEntityValidationException ex)
{
StringBuilder sbError = new StringBuilder();
    foreach (var objError in ex.EntityValidationErrors)
    {
sbError.AppendFormat("Entity Type \"{0}\" in state \"{1}\" has the following errors:", objError.Entry.Entity.GetType().Name, objError.Entry.State);
        foreach (var validationError in objError.ValidationErrors)
        {
sbError.AppendFormat("Property: \"{0}\", Error: \"{1}\"",
                validationError.PropertyName, validationError.ErrorMessage);           
        }
    }
string validationErrors = sbError.ToString();
    //put you debugger here and see what is the value of "validationErrors"
}
