How to remove time portion of date in C# in DateTime object only?

Question

I need to remove time portion of date time or probably have the date in following format in object form not in the form of string.

Answer 1

Here is another method using String.Format

    DateTime todaysDate = DateTime.UtcNow;

    string dateString = String.Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", todaysDate);

    Console.WriteLine("Date with Time: "+ todaysDate.ToString());

    Console.WriteLine("Date Only : " + dateString);

Output:

Date with Time: 9/4/2016 11:42:16 AM

Date Only : 04/09/2016

This also works if the Date Time is stored in database.
