my string for getting DateTime is like this:

C#

string myDate = System.DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy");

If I want to obtain all values of dates of month, how can I exclude the day from above string.
Please help with the code.

With regards,

whatever you will write in format string will be extracted from the date like.

C#

System.DateTime.Now.ToString("MM yy");
System.DateTime.Now.ToString("MMM yyyy");
System.DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/yyyy");

try as follows:

DateTime myDateTime = DateTime.Now;
       string month = myDateTime.Month.ToString();
       string year = myDateTime.Year.ToString();
