What you have told is a nice way. but this is taking hour in 12 hour format,
but I want it in 24 hour format, because I have to it to generate ID's which
always increase in value.
How to use it in 24 hr Format does not help..
making "hh" to "hhhh"

I normally do something like this, the format never changes. You should
be
able to do the same with universal time.

DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddhhmmssffffff");

Hi,



I am using dotnet framework 2.0, visual studio 2005.



We are using DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().GetDateTimeFormats()[105]
to
format the string in particular format and using parseint64 after that to
generate an id after removing the - and spaces and other things.

Now, on my system

DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().GetDateTimeFormats()[105] returns
"09-Jan-07 06:50:07 PM"(Un Desirable) while on all other machines in our
project this returns in the format "2007-01-09 18:50:07". (Desirable
Format)

How to ensure that the same value is returned in all the machines?

Capitalise the hh as in the following:
Console.WriteLine(
DateTime.Now.AddHours(10).ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmssffffff"));

I Got my answer.
using HH returns in 24 hours format instead of hh.

Thanks.
