Reading a date using DataReader

Question

I read a string using this format with a data reader. How can I read in a date using similar format?

}

Answer 1

Try as given below:

while (MyReader.Read())
{
    TextBox1.Text = Convert.ToDateTime(MyReader["DateField"]).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy");
}

in ToString() method you can change data format as per your requirement.
