Solution 3

Data type of DATE or DATETIME will append the time also. If you want to avoid the time then take data type of the column as VARCHAR and CAST it whenever required.

Solution 2

You mean in the asp.net, it automatically appends 12:00 AM?

Then try this.

C#

date1.ToShortDateString();

Here date1 is my datetimeobject.

or if its in sql server, then

SQL

select Convert(varchar(10),date1,101) from tbl_Temp

i m using calender extender , in which date is displayed in a textbox and from textbox i m sending it to database, so where to use the method ToShortDateString()

If you dont want 12:AM in UI, then always use Toshortdatestring with datetime

Santhosh Kumar Jayaraman 7-Aug-12 5:56am

textbox.Text= Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString();
