    Doing `DateTimePicker1 = ...` will attempt to change the entire control. You want to modify its properties, not replace the entire DTP. – Visual Vincent Aug 26 '16 at 09:38

You need to convert the text into a Date value and then assign it to the DateTimePicker's Value property.

DateTimePicker1.Value = Date.Parse(dateofbirth.Text)
