Hi,

Getting error message "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime"

DateTime date = DateTime.Parse("2015-09-08T12:34:31.0Z" );

How to convert this datetime?

Locally its working fine, but not in server.

Hi,

From where you are getting this value ?

Do simple splitting or replacing.

Replace T with and remove three characters from the end of the string you wont get this error.

I think you are using C# codes datetime.Now() function and saving it to some place or a variable.

Dont worry splitting and replacing will work.

Hope it helps.
Thanks.

Hi
Please use this code.

string strTime = "04/30/2013 23:00";
DateTime dtTime;
if(DateTime.TryParseExact(strTime, "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm",
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out dtTime))
{
Console.WriteLine(dtTime);
}

Hi,

CultureInfo :

It's Provides information about a specific culture.The information includes the names for the culture, the writing system, the calendar used, the sort order of strings, and formatting for dates and numbers.
using System.Globalization;//namespace

DateTime From = DateTime.ParseExact(txtFrom.Text, "dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
