C# - How to change culture without changing DateTime format

I have been used Resx file in ASP,net Web Form for implemention of multi language in an site. for changing the language I should change below mesures:

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture

it seems that in new operating systems such as Microsoft Windows 10 , changing Culture may change the DateTime in a same way. it cause a lot of problem for us for example : The saving format for DateTime in database is Anno Domini but it change by changing Culture and save in database by other formats. How should I change the Culture without changing the Date format?

Thanks

Solution

  • I added the following code to my OnLoad of master page to prevent using other cultures calendars

    System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat = New CultureInfo("en-GB").DateTimeFormat
