Question

In Table, DueDate data type is varchar. Now I want to check the due date with today\'s date

 var query = (from o in db.Order_Reports
              where Convert.         


        

Answer 1

Maybe this will work

// Make new variable in DateTime Format
DateTime dateFrom = DateTime.ParseExact(o.ReportDueDateTime, "MM/dd/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

var query = (from o in db.Order_Reports
              where dateFrom >= DateTime.Now
              select o);
