Question

This is going to sound very silly but I can’t get a string to convert into a DateTime that carries the date and time

I try this :

Response.Write(year + " " + month + " " + day + " " + hour + " " + min ); 
//prints 2008 9 23 11 59 0 (represents 9/23/2008 11:59 00 AM)
DateTime dt= new DateTime(year , month , day , hour , min , 00);

But it tells me it is not a representable DateTime. Same thing here.

String toParse = "9/23/2008" + " " + hour + ":" + minute + " 00 " + "AM" ;
DateTime dt=  Convert.ToDateTime(toParse);

I’m having so much trouble. How do I do this correctly?

Answer 1

I think your problem is here

 + minute + " 00 " + "AM" 

Should be:

 + minute + ":00 " + "AM"
