Date Function

[Guest]

I have a label - lblDate and when my form loads I want the current date to
show up in it. I have started the Form Load Event but cannot get the Date
Function to work properly. Can anyone tell me how to get the current date in
my label?

Thanks in advance

In your form load event,

lblDate.Text = System.DateTime.Now.ToString()

Show us the code you are using so we can help you better.

Here's another way:

Me.Text = DateTime.Today.ToShortDateString

my label?

Me.Label1.Text = Now().Date.ToShortDateString()

Addendnum:

You can omit the '.Date' in the code I posted.

Cor,

Me.Label1.Text = Now().ToShortString()

I thried it, it does not work

I said '.Date', not 'Date' (note the small difference...) .

When I tried this in VB 6, I received a compile error:
Method or Data member not found.
Is there a reference I need to include?
Thanks,
