No, you don't. A datetime value doesn't have a format at all. Either you have a datetime value, or you have a string that represents a datetime value. As you are getting an error converting it to a datetime value, it has to be the later.
If possible, you should convert the data type in the database so that you are storing the datetime values as datetime values, not as strings.
Otherwise you have to specify the format when you are parsing the strings that you get from the database:
DateTime somewhereInTime = DateTime.ParseExact((string)objdr["startdate"], "dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

Hi
This will convert into format mm/dd/yyyy. But I dont have idea about convert this back to dd/mm/yyyy.
string StrDate = "13/03/2007";
DateTime dtmConvertDate;
IFormatProvider format = new CultureInfo("en-GB");
dtmConvertDate = DateTime.Parse(StrDate.ToString(), format, DateTimeStyles.None);
Response.Write("Date Format:" + dtmConvertDate.ToShortDateString());

Hey Gautham,
here is a simple way.
declare these variables first. just copy paste them.
string LocalTime = null;
DateTime dt;
DateTime local;
string localDateTime = null;
now, take the value from the database, and put the value in the variable LocalTime.
LocalTime = value(s) from the database ... should be a string value.
dt = Convert.ToDateTime(LocalTime);
local = dt.ToLocalTime();
localDateTime = string.Format("{0}/{1}/{2}", local.Month, local.Day, local.Year);
"put values in database" = localDateTime;
I hope its easy. get back to me if u dont understand

I am not sure that we ca execute PL/SQL commands using commands object
|
|
|
|
|
we'll we can execute that command in a version of oracle in which i have worked before. Almost all the websites I checked give me the same query to check and accordingly delete the tables.
I have checked though that we cant use the if word in C#, for some reason. 
I just want a way to drop tables if they exist directly through C# code.
i know how to create and drop, but to check and drop doesnt work out atleast for now

I want to implement a dialog like the above examples when using MSDev. The dialog is docked in the left side of the application window and when hovered on top of shows the entire dialog, otherwise it's minimized. Any idea?
(Extra info: in this dialog I plan to implement a drop-down listbox and depending on which item in the list box is selected, a child window shows. (So yea the main app is a MDI and this MDI app is where this toolbar-type dialog will be docked).
Thanks in advance!

Hi All! I'm working on a windows service which polls a mailbox and retrieves mails through POP. Then it processes mails it retrieved from the server. Sometimes server stops responding in between the processing. I want to know how to gracefully stop the service and restart it. I've not worked with windows services prior to this, So I don't have much idea about it. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!

TextFormat class allows you to justify a text to left, right, top, bottom, center and middle of the clip rect. But I saw in Microsoft Word an option to justify text to both margin, so every line of text has the same width.
I checked the TextFormat properties and didn't find out how to do this.
Please help me, thanks alot.

I have been looking all over the MSDN area trying to find a listing of the various predefined methods (probally not the word I need). 
My present interest in in things like Convert.DecToHex.Convert(). This is a static method from what I can find out. I'm trying to find what others are listed in this area and what they all do.
Does anyone happen to know where I might find this type of listing?
At this time I'm getting shunted to everywhere but where I want. My frustration factor is getting very high. 
Thanks for any information you can get for me.

Hi there,
Im still trying to figure out this csv reader thingy. I know this is a really simple thing im trying to acheive but as im still only a newbie with c# im finding it rather tricky. ive got the code that im using below, and it reads the csv just fine. the only problem im having is creating the array.
the csv is really simple to read. it just looks like
the amount of rows changes but the structure is the way it appears below.
123456,1234556,23434324,12313231,3423434234,4544354
123313,2312313,44545432,12323445,2424234322,2342334
I know this is a really simple dilemma but im sure one of you genius's can figure this out.
using System;
using System.IO;
class CSVReader
{
public static void Main()
{
try
{
string FileName = "FileImport.csv";
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(FileName))
{
string line;
// Read and display lines from the file until the end of
// the file is reached.
while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
Console.WriteLine(line);
}
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
// Let the user know what went wrong.
Console.WriteLine("The file could not be read:");
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
}

Do anybody knows how to display a parent-child relation in a winforms datagrid from a collectionbase-based custom object datasource.
the custom object looks like this:
public class ColeccionOT : System.Collections.CollectionBase
{
public ColeccionOT(){
}
public void Add(OT ot){
List.Add(ot);
}
public void Remove(OT ot){
List.Remove(ot);
}
public OT this[int index]{
get{return (OT)List[index];}
}
public object[] Items{
get{return InnerList.ToArray();}
}
}
--------
public class OT
{
private long _id;
private Proyecto _proyecto;
private System.DateTime _fechainicio;
private System.DateTime _fechafin;
private AdministradorOTBase _adminOT;
private ColeccionActividades _clcnActiv;
public OT() {
_clcnActiv = new ColeccionActividades();
}
public OT(AdministradorOTBase usuario, Proyecto proy) {
_clcnActiv = new ColeccionActividades();
adminOT = usuario;
proyecto = proy;
}
public ColeccionActividades Actividades {
get{return _clcnActiv;}
set{_clcnActiv = value;}
}
public long id{
get{return _id;}
set{_id = value;}
}
public Proyecto proyecto{
get{return _proyecto;}
set{_proyecto = value;}
}
}
parent object: ColeccionOT
child object: <<property>>OT.Actividades (another CollectioBase-Base object)
Thanks in advance.

I have a byte array that contains all kinds of info.
Like
Bits Purpose
7-4 Color
...
15-9 Length
...
If this was my class
<br />
class BasePacket{<br />
private byte[] data;
....<br />
....<br />
}<br />
I like to be able do
<br />
<br />
BasePacket x = .....;<br />
x.color = 5;<br />
x.length = 3;<br />
int y = x.color;<br />
...<br />
...<br />
I know how to write this with &,|,<<, sets and gets but
I was wondering if there was a slicker solution.
I'd like to define each property on one line.
//Available bits
color , 4 , 4
length, 9, 7
<property name=""> , <bits start=""> , <bit length="">
Is this possible? I just looking for ideas not necessarily actual code.
Thanks for this great forum and its members.
