If I don't change the value of date time picker, textbox will show text

Please correct me and help me. This is the code.

option 1

Dim availability As New List(Of String)
        If dtpavailability.Value = Date.Today Then availability.Add("Can start to work anytime") Else availability.Add("Can start to work by " + dtpavailability.Value.Date)

Option 2

Dim availability As New List(Of String)
        If dtpavailability.Value = Today Then availability.Add("Can start to work anytime") Else availability.Add("Can start to work by " + dtpavailability.Value.Date)

Option 3

Dim availability As New List(Of String)
        If dtpavailability.Value = TimeOfDay Then availability.Add("Can start to work anytime") Else availability.Add("Can start to work by " + dtpavailability.Value.Date)

Output

Textbox1.text = String.Join(vbNewLine, availability)

I tried these options but I still can't achieve what I want for my practice project. I want the textbox1 to show the "Can start to work anytime" if I don't change the date on the date time picker which has the date today on my computer system.

Please help me correct my code.

Solution

  • The DateTimePicker includes the Time in the Value Property.

    To get only the date, you'll need:

    dtpavailability.Value.Date
