Force 24 hours datetime format

Hi,

I am using DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddThhmmss"), but time is
displayed in 12-hours format. How can I force .NET to display 24 hours
format? Can I do something with the CultureInfo of the current thread.
I do not want it to be dependent of the settings of the computer.

Any help appreciated.

Regards,
Henk

Also, if you're trying to format to ISO 8601 (I assume this because of
the 'T' separator), the format you're using is incorrect. Correct format
is for exampple:

1997-07-16T19:20:30

you can also use XmlConvert.ToString(dateTime,
XmlDateTimeSerializationMode.XXX);

to format to ISO 8601
