I need to convert an RFC 822 formatted date into the short date format of mm/dd/yyyy using VB.net. I have a web application that I cannot change the source code for. The web application allows an RSS feed to be sorted by month and year.
Would appreciate any advice or assistance.
Use Date.TryParse to convert the string to a Date value, then use Date.ToString with a custom format string to set the format the way you want it.
