Datetimepicker - just getting the data part

[Aussie Rules]

Hi,

I have a date time picker on a form, and it returns the date, but inclused a
time value as well.

How can I just get the date part with the time being 00:00

Thanks

Does "00:00" represent a time format? Or do you want just the date
returned and no time.

If so, try it this way:

Dim dtDate As DateTime = Now
dtDate.ToShortDateString()

Hi,

The value still contains the time component

sDt = dtStartDate.Value
sDt.ToShortDateString()


Thanks

How are you determining there is a time component?

Dim dtDate As Date = Now
dtDate.ToShortDateString()

This returns "10/3/2006".

MyDate = Format(DTPicker1.Value, "Short Date")

Aussie,

The value still contains the time component

The DateTime structure holds not any Date or Time. It are ticks in the
"long" property Ticks starting at the first day of the year one, confirm
your timezone, which can be represented in all kind of ways.

I hope this gives an idea.
