Answer 1

You can format the date however you like.

Use ToString() on the DateTime and pass in the appropriate format string.

Try one of the format strings from here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kb3ddd4%28v=vs.110%29.aspx

someDateTime.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy)

Answer 2

You need to format it like following. Before that don't forget to convert to datetime type. Following is just an example only.

DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"));
