Im after some advice on date format conversions. I am working on a project that has raddatepicker controls that will take values chosen in the UI and uses them as constraints on a SQL query going back to the database.
My problem lies in the fact that the UI has a sensible date format (dd/mm/yyyy), whereas the database stored dates as "the number of seconds past 00:00:00 01/01/1970". In T-SQL, I can convert using:
[Code]....
I have no idea how to achieve this same conversion in C# so the user can choose a friendly format, but subsequently pass back the database date format.
I just realize this difference in date conversion: In SQL server, if you run the code below
declare @dateStr varchar(20) set @dateStr = '1/1/49' select cast(@dateStr as smalldatetime) you will get "2049-01-01 00:00:00" In .NET taking string with value "1/1/49" and it will turn into 1/1/1949 12:00:00 AM DateTime dateObj; dateObj = DateTime.Parse("1/1/49"); Label1.Text = dateObj.ToString();
Can anybody tell me why Microsoft did this and what is the best way to prevent user from entering 2 digits year?
Im receiving a strange error Error Message: Conversion from string "15/08/2010 22:21:35" to type 'Date' is not valid.
I know this is generally down to cultural date formats etc, however the reason this is strange is it just randomly occured twice in the last week, the website has been running since october and nothing has changed,
The error constantly occured until the IIS was reset and recompilled the site, its been running fine since, however im just trying to figure out what could cause such an error to occur.
i used below code for date time picker validation but it's not working.
Actually I want a date time picker which date dd/mm/yyyy format date. With validation for start and end date. Also for manual entry it should take only no. and for date rest like / or, will be auto formatted.means user should not be able to enter it.
I have a web page which generates a .CSV file based on some user input. When this file is downloaded by the user, the file is being automatically converted to .XLS. Any idea how I can prevent this?
For example, I am redirecting the user to the URL of the generated file, like below URL:
http://localhost/reports/Work/aa.csv
But the download window appears to download "aa.xls"!

I've asp.net 2.0 ajax enabled web site in which I used Ajax update panels in pages. Now I want to convert it into asp.net 3.5 but it gives errors for Ajax tool kit and script manager and update panel used in pages. I don't want to remove ajax functionality from my site, so is there a way to convert them without removing ajax update panels from pages. On my PC I've installed both VS2005 and VS2008.
I am totally desparate with the task of Video Conversion, uploading & streaming. I have gone through various articles, posts, blogs and code snipped but couldnt find any full working solution for that.I was advised to work with ffmpeg and i got the functionality [URL]but later i come to know that most asp.net servers (including mine) do not allow to ffmpeg on the server.
Then i look for other solutions, some are saying to convert video files manually and then upload to website (funny hannn). Some are suggesting other site which can store our video and stream from there servers .....So i am stuck now and dont know where to go. I need a complete solution of this problem. Like Users could upload a video file (of any format or at least a good number of choice for upload file format), then they click an upload button and video conversion (e.g. to .flv took place) and the output should be displayed to a user in video player (showing our own logo, not youtube logo....etc.) and thats it.I will definately appreciate all of your comments and guidence.
I have a window that has 3 dropdownlist controls and a textbox with a Calendar Extender associated to it.
I have the following on my pageload event so when the Page loads the current Date is put in the date textbox:
[Code]....
I can change the date fine but when I select a value from one of the other dropdownlist controls it puts the date back to today's date...The only place I am setting the Date to the current date is in the pageload event...
how can I get it to keep the date to what I change it to after I select a new value from one of the dropdown lists?
I'm using a basic date picker control in a gridview and using an sqldatasource, I don't get an error but the date selected is not saved only null is saved. why that might happen or make any suggestions on what I might try to correct this?
I have a formview. Inside, there is a textbox where user can input a date(txtAccepDt). Then the user will choose one item from a radiobutton list which has values like 60 days, 90 days and 150 days. If the user select the 60 days I need to add that to the Accept date and show it in a abel(lblShowFrstOp). Same will apply with other two day
