Use the ToString() method to convert a DateTime to a string

 

using System;

class MainClass
{
  public static void Main()
  {
    DateTime myDateTime = new DateTime(2004, 1, 12, 22, 2, 10);
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString() = " + myDateTime.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"d\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("d"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"D\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("D"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"f\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("f"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"F\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("F"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"g\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("g"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"G\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("G"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"m\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("m"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"r\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("r"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"s\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("s"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"t\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("t"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"T\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("T"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"u\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("u"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"U\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("U"));
    Console.WriteLine("myDateTime.ToString(\"y\") = " + myDateTime.ToString("y"));

  }
}

The result is:

myDateTime.ToString() = 12/01/2004 10:02:10 PM
myDateTime.ToString("d") = 12/01/2004
myDateTime.ToString("D") = January 12, 2004
myDateTime.ToString("f") = January 12, 2004 10:02 PM
myDateTime.ToString("F") = January 12, 2004 10:02:10 PM
myDateTime.ToString("g") = 12/01/2004 10:02 PM
myDateTime.ToString("G") = 12/01/2004 10:02:10 PM
myDateTime.ToString("m") = January 12
myDateTime.ToString("r") = Mon, 12 Jan 2004 22:02:10 GMT
myDateTime.ToString("s") = 2004-01-12T22:02:10
myDateTime.ToString("t") = 10:02 PM
myDateTime.ToString("T") = 10:02:10 PM
myDateTime.ToString("u") = 2004-01-12 22:02:10Z
myDateTime.ToString("U") = January 13, 2004 6:02:10 AM
myDateTime.ToString("y") = January, 2004
