I am currently using Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows desktop with an SQL back-end. I am trying to run an SQL query that will have the date time in format "yyyy-mm-dd." My problem is I need to see all entries from that date. Currently my date time picker keeps giving me a time with my selection. I need to remove the time portion. I tried a couple of solutions from the web but when I try and display the date time picker in a message box to see what the value is it says false. I am not sure how to change the output value in the custom field to remove this. Here is my code.
This is in on my load event:
'date time picker set up
DTPPromiseDate.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom
DTPPromiseDate.CustomFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"
Then in a button click event, is a message box to display what was selected in the date time picker. I want to get my message box working correctly before I try and run SQL queries with it.
MsgBox(DTPPromiseDate.Value)
-------------------------UPDATE-----------------
This code appeared as I wanted it to but I am still trying to work it into my query.
DTPPromiseDate.Value.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
Apply the formatting string that you used in the picker's custom format to the message box text as well.

So, in VB.NET, I can see the current date ("Tuesday, April 18, 2017") however in run time, I get the following: http://i.imgur.com/QUG0wq6.png
Any idea on what could be going on? Just started to happen.
I cannot replicate the problem.
In the search for your operating system, type "date format" and click on the entry for "Change date and time formats". Verify that the entry for Long date is:
dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy
You might want to switch it to something else and then back again just to be sure the setting is saved.
Back in Visual Studio, add a new DateTimePicker to your form and call it dtpSample and then put this code in the form load event:
With dtpSample
.Value = Now.AddMonths(1) '1 month in the future
.ShowUpDown = False
.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Long
End With
If when you run the project now and the date in dtpSample is fine and still wrong in the other one, then it sounds like you have something in your code is breaking/altering the original control.
I had the same issue with an Application built with VS2015 but it only appeared when deployed to a "Creator's Update" PC. Turned out that the "Enable application Framework" checkbox needed checking within the projects Application page, as per the following:

So, I am using the datetimepicker by eonasdan. Everything appears to work fine except one field.
The field in question clears the input box that the date is in. Why does it not stay there?
I have tried the options defaultDate and useCurrent, but nothing seems to make a difference.
Here a sceenshot of my form:
I am trying to fill a textbox value with the current date and I do not want the user to be able to change the date. I want to use a textbox and not a datepicker. I would like the form to load with today's date already loaded in the textbox, which I will then use in my insert query.
I want the date format of yyyy-MM-dd to be in the textbox memberregisterationdate.text. I am not sure where on my form I should put the code either.
Really stuck on this and I can't seem to find it anywhere
Thanks in advance
You have to make it Enabled = False to disable it. You can load it in Form_Load:
memberregisterationdate.Text = Date.Today.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
I have an Excel 2007 sheet with VBA user forms to get data from access. Everything works fine. Data also gets populated over VBA form but when i click on any Multi-page tab then it throws the following error (though i can see values were loaded successfully):
Run time error 35788. An Error occurred in a call to the Windows Date & time picker control
How can I fix this?
Note: I have used Me.Multipage.Value = 0 or 1 as per page index before code executes for multipage tab. e.g. before 2nd page code execution i set index as 1.
When i click over user form field name on debugging then it highlight as 12:00:00 AM & access field name shows correct date value.
Finally i got this working with little more head beating. I added Me.Multipage1.Value = 0 in the last of code & it started working. Though i think it should not have anything with error i received above but i got this working. Anyhow. Thanks.
May be this helps someone else running with same trouble.
The date time picker needs to be shown before the added value, so if you have a multi-page user form, you need to show the page containing the date time picker first.
I am trying to store DoteOfBirth from a Calender control in visual studio 2010.
Dim dob As Date = Calendar1.SelectedDate.Date.ToShortDateString()
I wanna save like dd/MM/yyyy without anything else but when i save it it shows like
2012-02-28T00:00:00+00:00
I don't know where to change the format and I don't know how to remove the thing attached to the date. I am writing it in vb.net and saving to xml file.
Thanks so much.
If you're using a DateTimePicker control, you should use the Format or CustomFormat properties.
If you're using the MonthCalendar control ... well, you may consider using the DateTimePicker instead, as per this excerpt from MSDN:
If you need custom date formatting and a selection limited to just one date, you might consider using a DateTimePicker control instead of a MonthCalendar. Using the DateTimePicker eliminates much of the need for validating date/time values.
