date question

[Guest]

hey all,

i was wondering, you know how you can say fieldDate.Month or fieldDate.Day
in vb.net to pick apart the individual date components. If the month is
between 1 and 9 to append a zero in front of that month (i.e. 01, 02, 03)
without going thru heavy string manipulation?

is there some sort of format command you can use with the .month or .day
property? please say yes.

thanks,
rodchar

Call the ToString method of DateTime with appropriate formatting string

Standard format strings:
