Question

I want this to equate to false when the date displayed is today’s date:

if (dateTimePickerScheduleDate.Value < DateTime.Now)

…but it doesn’t, because the DTP’s value contains “midnight” whereas “Now” is after midnight.

How do I “trunc” these values so that it disregards the time portion?

Answer 1

if(dateTimePickerScheduleDate.Value.Date < DateTime.Now.Date)
{
}

The Date property returns a DateTime reflecting only the Date component of your DateTime object with its time component zero’ed out.
