Your what I have tried section doesn't match your question. Are you storing "06/01/16" as a DateTime, or is it a string? What does your code look like.

Solution 2

C#

DateTime original = Convert.ToDateTime("06/01/16");
DateTime converted = Convert.ToDateTime(original.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"));

string date = DateTime.ParseExact("06/01/16", "dd/MM/yy", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"); //"06/01/2016"
