What is the type of the MFdate and EXPdate columns? If its DateTime it will always have a time, no matter what you do.

I answered below, this is pretty cut and dry.

MFdate and EXPdate are Datetime columns.

That means they will always have a time in them. If you just want to use the date part, wherever you are displaying it you need to format the DateTime so that it includes just the date portion, but the SQL will contain a time, you can't change that.

C#

string transactionDate = drForTransInfo[8].ToString();
                        string getDate = string[] dateSplit = transactionDate.Split(' ');
                        foreach (string word in dateSplit)
                        {
                            getDate = dateSplit[0].onvert.ToDateTime(drForTransInfo[9].ToString()).ToString("hh:mm:ss tt");
                        }
                        lblDate.Text = getDate;
