Dear Friends,

I have a project in ASP.Net which contains around 1200 forms. It is being used by both the indian clients and the US clients.

I have written all the code for all the forms and taken the date format in dd/MM/yyyy, according to indian format but as the americans write date in MM/dd/YYYY; the clients are requiring that they must be able to enter the date only in their format i.e., MM/dd/YYYY where there are textboxes for the same.

But as i have written all the code in dd/MM/yyyy format and all the computing part is done in the same format only it will be impossible for me to change alogether the code.

So, now i am requiring some custom textbox control which validates the US clients, while filling the text box with date in format MM/dd/YYYY; but still does the computing part in the format dd/MM/yyyy.

Is there any alternative solution to this then kindly let me know.

Thanks

Just do as follows

C#

DateTime startDate = new DateTime(2010, 01, 01);
string customFormat = "MM/dd/yyyy";

txtStartDate.Text = startDate.ToString(customFormat);

It will work.
Note: Check format should be exactly same as "MM/dd/yyyy".
