How to change DateTimePicker date format in vb.net

Question

How to change DateTimePicker date format in vb.net so that date is displayed in dd / mm / 1990 format without any time value? I tried changing the format to “short,” and although it does format the date, I require that it not delete the time.

Answer 1

You need to set the DateTimePicker format to custom, and then assign CustomFormat.

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    DateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom
    DateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy"
End Sub

Answer 2

Using:

dateTimePicker.Value.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd")

Refer to the following link:

Answer 3

:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim CustomeDate As String = ("#" & DOE.Value.Date.ToString("d/MM/yyyy") & "#")
    MsgBox(CustomeDate.ToString)

    con.Open()

    dadap = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM QRY_Tran where FORMAT(qry_tran.doe,'d/mm/yyyy') = " & CustomeDate & "", con)

    ds = New System.Data.DataSet
    dadap.Fill(ds)
    Dgview.DataSource = ds.Tables(0)
    con.Close()

Note: if u uses ddto represent the date, it will not return anything when choosing from 1 to 9, so use dto select

'Date time format
'MMM     Three-letter month.
'ddd     Three-letter day of the week.
'd       Day of the month.
'HH      Two-digit hours on 24-hour scale.
'mm      Two-digit minutes.
'yyyy    Four-digit year.

The documentation contains a complete list of date formats.
