Date formatting yyyymmdd to yyyy-mm-dd

Question

I\'m trying to convert a date in yyyymmdd format to yyyy-mm-dd with the following code:

tdrDate = DateTime.ParseExact(dateString, \"yyyymmdd\", null).ToStrin         


        

Answer 1

Try this :

tdrDate = DateTime.ParseExact(dateString, "yyyyMMdd", null).ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

use MM instead mm, mm is for minute & MM is for Month that is why it is taking 01 (default value of MM).
