Convert a string to a date in .net

Question

I\'m reading text from a flat file in c# and need to test whether certain values are dates. They could be in either YYYYMMDD format or MM/DD/YY format. What is the simplest

Answer 1

Using TryParse will not throw an exception if it fails. Also, TryParse will return True/False, indicating the success of the conversion.
