Convert datetime without timezone

Question

I have date in string: "2013-07-22T08:51:38.000-07:00"

When I try parse this string, I receive date with offset of timezone.

How can I make it without timezone offset?

---UPDATE---

it is that I receive: DateTime.Parse("2013-07-22T08:51:38.000-07:00") = 7/22/2013 7:51:38 PM but I need to receive 7/22/2013 8:51:38 AM - DateTime without offset.

What *exactly* do you mean by "with offset time zone"? Please show your code, what you expected to receive, and what you actually received. And consider using `DateTimeOffset`. — Jon Skeet, Oct 16 '13 at 11:23

You can use the DateTime property of DateTimeOffset.

Example:

string s = "2013-07-22T08:51:38.000-07:00";
var dateTimeOffset =DateTimeOffset.Parse(s, null);
Console.WriteLine(dateTimeOffset.DateTime);

Outputs:

22/07/2013 08:51:38

Is there a way to do this before an HTTP Handler is called? – ryanwebjackson Oct 17 '17 at 16:30

you can try this.

DateTimeOffset.Parse("2013-07-22T08:51:38.000-07:00").DateTime.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss tt");

You can try the below one

        string s = "2013-07-22T08:51:38.000-07:00";

        DateTime d = Convert.ToDateTime(s);

        Console.WriteLine(d.Date.ToShortDateString());

if it been 2013-07-22T08:51:38.000 parse works fine. – P_rnd Oct 16 '13 at 11:54
but '2013-07-22T08:51:38.000-07:00' does offset time. – P_rnd Oct 16 '13 at 11:56
You can use DateTime object directly Console.WriteLine(d); – Gun Oct 16 '13 at 13:11

If you have a DateTime object, you can use the Date property on it to receive just the date.

This is not a good answer since the date itself may be modified by the timezone. – Paul Raff Oct 26 '15 at 22:42
