date-format

I have to process dates . If the format i specify is mm/dd/yyyy and the date is like 7/5/2013, it is throwing a format exception. Does the date has to be like 07/05/2013? If yes how can i change the date from 7/5/2013 to 07/05/2013 programatically ? and the date format is not specific. I can have dates in mm-dd-yyyy or yyyy-mm-dd and the dates can come like 7-5-2013. Use the ParseExact method, and specify the format as M/d/yyyy (or d/M/yyyy , depending on what exactly you need): var date = DateTime.ParseExact(input, "M/d/yyyy"); There is also an overload which can handle multiple date formats:

I have read date from XML which give me back string where the date is like DD-MM-YYYY . But when I want to add it to my core data database, SQLite sorts me that wrong so I have to convert it to date format or to string like: YYYY-MM-DD . But SQLite does not support either Date() or To_Date() functions. Can you help me? Nick Cartwright You can use NSDateFormatter to format a date in Objective C. Here's a quick example which might not do exactly what you want, but should hopefully give some pointers: // Convert my dd-mm-yyyyy string into a date object NSString *stringDate = @"01-02-2011";

I've found a dilly of a pickle with a new web server. We have a new web server that is displaying dates differently than our old web servers. We are running asp classic web pages on IIS 6.0 with windows server 2003. We have logged in as an administrator and set the regional settings as appropriate and then applied the settings to current user and default user profile. We then went into registry and update the appropriate formats under HKEY_USERS/.default/control panel/international. Update the asp.net configuration for our websites to the correct code-page and locale. Does anyone have other

I'm not that familiar with I18N in Rails so bear with me. Trying to set a custom date & time format: #config/locales/en.yml en: date: formats: long_dateweek: "%A, %B %d, %Y" time: formats: very_short: "%H:%M" But when I try to use them I just get the default formats: 1.9.3p194 :001 > Time.now.to_date.to_s(:long_dateweek) => "2012-08-22" 1.9.3p194 :002 > Time.now.to_time.to_s(:very_short) => "2012-08-22 16:12:47 -0700" Tried restarting console (and even the server) to no avail... What'd I miss? You need to use the I18n.l method as follows: 1.9.3p194 :001 > I18n.l Time.now.to_date, :format =>

I have a to compare dates in 2 tables but the problem is that one table has the date in DD-Mon-YY format and the other in YYYYMM format. I need to make both of them YYYYMM for the comparison. I need to create something like this: SELECT * FROM offers WHERE offer_date = (SELECT to_date(create_date, 'YYYYMM') FROM customers where id = '12345678') AND offer_rate > 0 where create_date is something like 12-Mar-2006 and offer_date is something like 200605 Any ideas where I need to adapt this query?? As offer_date is an number, and is of lower accuracy than your real dates, this may work... - Convert
