Convert string to datetime now format

Question

How I can convert string 23:59 to datetime format? So that I can reduce the current time in it.

Example: String = 23:59 minus Datime.Now = 13.8.2014 10:59:55

Time left 12 hours 0 minutes.

This question gets asked unreasonably often. Did you at least *try* searching first? Maybe the documentation? Maybe Stack Overflow? Maybe the entire Internet? Or maybe just the Intellisense listing? — Cody Gray - on strike, Aug 13 '14 at 08:14

i would use ParseExact

TimeSpan tsDifference = DateTime.ParseExact("23:59", "HH:mm", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) - DateTime.Now;
