How to get dd-MM-yyyy date format in DatePicker control?

11-25-2008 1:03 AM |

I can set dd-MMM-yyy date format in DatePicker, but I can't set dd-MM-yyyy.

 This is my code:

        private void ToDay_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            this.ToDay.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy");
        }

        private void ToDay_SelectedDateChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            this.ToDay.Text = this.ToDay.SelectedDate.Value.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy");
            DrawReservation();
        }

 Please help me.

Hi hoangtuit,

Add   using System.Globalization;using System.Threading;   Namespace

And

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("en-GB"); in your code behind ...

Cheers,
Balakrishnan
