i am not getting you exactly..

you need to return the date format like "1 Sep 2014"....

Member 10744248 18-Sep-14 8:40am

For any month the system should generate the first day (1), combine it with the month and year

For instance the current date is 18 Sep 2014

expected ouput 1 Sep 2014'

Solution 1

Hi,

Have a look at the DateTime Constructor.
This will show you how to create DateTime objects in C#.

You can use it like this:

C#

DateTime dtFirstDate = new DateTime(2014, 9, 1);
DateTime dtSecondDate = new DateTime(2014, 1, 1);

Hope it helps.

DateTime dt1 = DateTime.Now;

txtFromDate.Text=(Year.dt1,Month.dt1,1)

Hi,

Something like this:

DateTime dt1 = DateTime.Now;
txtFromDate.Text=new DateTime(dt1.Year,dt1.Month,1).ToShortDateString();

Solution 2

Try:

C#

DateTime dt1;
if (!DateTime.TryParse("1 Sep 2014", out dt1))
    {
    // Report error to whatever
    return;
    }
DateTime dt2;
if (!DateTime.TryParse("1 Jan 2014", out dt2))
    {
    // Report error to whatever
    return;
    }
TimeSpan diff = dt1 - dt2;
