I'm not clear what the problem is, you appear to be saying
you want date variables to act like formatted strings and
that ain't gonna happen.
Hi Jan, thank you for your reply.
Clearly I didn't explain myself very well...my apologies.
What does it matter how the data variable holds the date?
Aren't you displaying the date in the format you desire anyway?
I have the date stored in the database and my class as a date, it also has
the time etc...
What I want to be able to do on my web page is say this:
"Last updated: 22/05/2006 11:46"
what I dont want is this:
"Last updated: 05/22/2006 11:46:01 AM" or whatever else it feel like adding
etc :)
What I used to be able to do was this:
Response.Write (myDate.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm")
and I get exactly that:
22/05/2006 11:46
I am unable to do this now in .net 2.0 - the ToString function does not give
you the format stuff in the brackets, instead I get an "index" instead?
whats a bit weird is that I can type..
..ToString.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") - not that it worked, but I thought it odd
I could tostring a tostring??!
Is any of this any clearer?
Regards
Rob
