format date to show month,day double digit

Question

Hi,

I have a datepicker control formatted  as a updown.

  this.dateTimePicker1.ShowUpDown = true;

  this.dateTimePicker1.Format = System.Windows.Forms.DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;

Custom format :

 ci = Application.CurrentCulture;
            format = ci.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern + " HH:mm:ss";

This format shows me 10/ 1/2010 00:00:00

How would I get a 10/01/2010(display mm/dd/yyyy, format date to show month,day double digit

Thank u

Sun

Hi,

I would need this as a dynamic format based on the culture. So cannot hard code it in Custom Format

In a button's Click or somewhere else, do this plz——

 dateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
 dateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "mm/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss";

Hi Sun,

I get confused.  If you want the date display according to culture, then don't do anything. If you want to display date in your way, then you need custom format.

Could you please explain what do you mean by dynamic format?

Best Regards,

So u can just dynamically setting the CustomFormat, Mine is only a sample. In fact u can do setting in a TextBox and assign to the CustomFormat property……
