Solution 1

Which WebControl are you using? Did you try?

DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

Solution 2

The ToString method on the DateTime struct can take a format parameter:

var dateAsString = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");
// dateAsString = "2011-02-17"

Documentation for standard and custom format strings is available on MSDN.

Solution 3

<%= DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd") %>

Solution 4

try ToString method for your desirer format use

DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

OR you can use it with your variable of DateTime type

dt.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

where dt is a DateTime variable

Solution 5

CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat.SetAllDateTimePatterns( ...

CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern = "yyyy-MM-dd";

Code should go somewhere in your Global.asax file

protected void Application_Start(){ ...

If you post code, XML or data samples, please highlight those lines in the text editor and click on the "code samples" button ( { } ) on the editor toolbar to nicely format and syntax highlight it!

ToShortDateString() uses a culturally dependent format, so it may return yyyy-MM-dd on one computer/user and mm/dd/yyyy for another.
