Try this:

C#

string date = "10/14/2012";
int year = Convert.ToInt32(date.Split('/')[2]);
int day = Convert.ToInt32(date.Split('/')[1]);
int month = Convert.ToInt32(date.Split('/')[0]);
DateTime dtOld = new DateTime(year, month, day);
string newDate = dtOld.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt").Replace('-', '/');

You can use the below code for your purpose:

lblUpdate.Text= DateTime.Parse(reader["TimeLupdate "].ToString()
, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-gb"))

@gopal pradhan SIR, its not working.
it throws an error
'System.Globalization.CultureInfo' is a 'type', which is not valid in the given context

Software Engineer 892 15-Oct-12 4:20am

also i used namespace using System.globalization;

gopal pradhan 15-Oct-12 4:51am

try this string.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", YourDate).ToString();
