You can get it done like this:

C#

// format string to format the date like you need it
String formatString = "dd/MM/yyyy";
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
DateTime date = new DateTime(now.Year, now.Month, 1); // create a date with current year and month and day 1
textBox1.Text = date.ToString(formatString);
textBox2.Text = now.ToString(formatString);

That should do it for you!

Please also refer to this page to learn all about DateTime format strings:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.globalization.datetimeformatinfo.aspx[^]

Hi,

Try the following Code....

DateTime dt1 = DateTime.Now.Date;
DateTime dt2 = dt1.Date.AddDays(-1* (dt1.Day - 1));

Now you get Current Date in dt1 and also get first date of that month in dt2

Set those values in your date control.

Cheers :)
