VB.net: Date without time

问题

How do you format the date time to just date?

For example, this is what I retrieved from the database: 12/31/2008 12:00:00 AM, but I just want to show the date and no time.

回答1:

Either use one of the standard date and time format strings which only specifies the date (e.g. "D" or "d"), or a custom date and time format string which only uses the date parts (e.g. "yyyy/MM/dd").

回答2:

FormatDateTime(Now, DateFormat.ShortDate)

回答3:

I almost always use the standard formating ShortDateString, because I want the user to be in control of the actual output of the date.

Code

   Dim d As DateTime = Now
   Debug.WriteLine(d.ToLongDateString)
   Debug.WriteLine(d.ToShortDateString)
   Debug.WriteLine(d.ToString("d"))
   Debug.WriteLine(d.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"))

2008-12-10

Note that these results will vary depending on the culture settings on your computer.

回答4:

Format datetime to short date string and convert back to date

CDate(YourDate.ToString("d"))

Or use short date string

CDate(YourDate.ToShortDateString)

回答5:

Or, if for some reason you don't like any of the more sensible answers, just discard everything to the right of (and including) the space.
