All the information you need on the DateTime structure and any other .NET classes, structures, and controls can be found in the MSDN Library. This resource should get you pointed in the right direction....th ere are multiple articles on the DateTime structure there. I recommend bookmarking the MSDN Library and using it as your primary resource when developing in .NET.

I think that you would be most interested in check out the DateTime.Parse method and the DateTime.TryPar se method.

string time is come from database n i ma matching this string with current time
just give conversion code to me

I don't think that this is a valid date/time string format:

"30/03/2010 12:03:15:PM"

There should not be ":PM"

Remove the : before the PM and see if it works.

...just give conversion code to me

I am going to hold off on providing you with help till I see the code that you’re trying to use. I am not going to keep throwing darts at a wall till you tell me it works.

Again, please post your code so that we can look at it and see what you’re trying to do. Then we can review and provide you with what we think would be your best solution to your problem.

Best of luck,
CroCrew~
