C# DateTime to "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" format

开发者_开发百科I want to convert a C# DateTime to "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" format. But I don't find a built in method to get this format? Any comments?


DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss"); // case sensitive


This site has great examples check it out

// create date time 2008-03-09 16:05:07.123
DateTime dt = new DateTime(2008, 3, 9, 16, 5, 7, 123);

String.Format("{0:y yy yyy yyyy}",      dt);  // "8 08 008 2008"   year

You've practically written the format yourself.

yourdate.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss")

  • MM = two digit month
  • mm = two digit minutes
  • HH = two digit hour, 24 hour clock
  • hh = two digit hour, 12 hour clock

Everything else should be self-explanatory.


You've just got to be careful between months (MM) and minutes (mm):

DateTime dt = DateTime.Now; // Or whatever
string s = dt.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss");

(Also note that HH is 24 hour clock, whereas hh would be 12 hour clock, usually in conjunction with t or tt for the am/pm designator.)

If you want to do this as part of a composite format string, you'd use:

string s = string.Format("The date/time is: {0:yyyyMMddHHmmss}", dt);

For further information, see the MSDN page on custom date and time formats.

DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy MMMM")  2015 May


You can use a custom format string:

DateTime d = DateTime.Now;
string dateString = d.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss");

Substitute "hh" for "HH" if you do not want 24-hour clock time.


If you use ReSharper, get help with ':' (see image)

C# DateTime to "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" format


In .Net Standard 2 you can format DateTime like belows:

DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
CultureInfo iv = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;

// Default formats
// D - long date           Tuesday, 24 April 2018
// d - short date          04/24/2018
// F - full date long      Tuesday, 24 April 2018 06:30:00
// f - full date short     Tuesday, 24 April 2018 06:30
// G - general long        04/24/2018 06:30:00
// g - general short       04/24/2018 06:30
// U - universal full      Tuesday, 24 April 2018 06:30:00
// u - universal sortable  2018-04-24 06:30:00
// s - sortable            2018-04-24T06:30:00
// T - long time           06:30:00
// t - short time          06:30
// O - ISO 8601            2018-04-24T06:30:00.0000000
// R - RFC 1123            Tue, 24 Apr 2018 06:30:00 GMT           
// M - month               April 24
// Y - year month          2018 April
Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString("D", iv));

// Custom formats
// M/d/yy                  4/8/18
// MM/dd/yyyy              04/08/2018
// yy-MM-dd                08-04-18
// yy-MMM-dd ddd           08-Apr-18 Sun
// yyyy-M-d dddd           2018-4-8 Sunday
// yyyy MMMM dd            2018 April 08      
// h:mm:ss tt zzz          4:03:05 PM -03
// HH:m:s tt zzz           16:03:05 -03:00
// hh:mm:ss t z            04:03:05 P -03
// HH:mm:ss tt zz          16:03:05 PM -03      
Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString("M/d/yy", iv));


DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss");

if you just want it displayed as a string


string date = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd-MMM-yy");  //05-Aug-13


Get the date as a DateTime object instead of a String. Then you can format it as you want.

  • MM/dd/yyyy 08/22/2006
  • dddd, dd MMMM yyyy Tuesday, 22 August 2006
  • dddd, dd MMMM yyyy HH:mm Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30
  • dddd, dd MMMM yyyy hh:mm tt Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30 AM
  • dddd, dd MMMM yyyy H:mm Tuesday, 22 August 2006 6:30
  • dddd, dd MMMM yyyy h:mm tt Tuesday, 22 August 2006 6:30 AM
  • dddd, dd MMMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30:07
  • MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm 08/22/2006 06:30
  • MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt 08/22/2006 06:30 AM
  • MM/dd/yyyy H:mm 08/22/2006 6:30
  • MM/dd/yyyy h:mm tt 08/22/2006 6:30 AM
  • MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss 08/22/2006 06:30:07

I am surprised no one has a link for this . any format can be created using the guidelines here:

Custom Date and Time Format Strings

For your specific example (As others have indicated) use something like

my_format="yyyyMMddHHmmss";
DateTime.Now.ToString(my_format);

Where my_format can be any string combination of y,M,H,m,s,f,F and more! Check out the link.


using C# 6.0

$"Date-{DateTime.Now:yyyyMMddHHmmss}"


An easy Method, Full control over 'from type' and 'to type', and only need to remember this code for future castings

DateTime.ParseExact(InputDate, "dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).ToString("yyyy/MM/dd"));


It is not a big deal. you can simply put like this

WriteLine($"{DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd-HH:mm:ss")}");

Excuse here for I used $ which is for string Interpolation .


Specify formatted DateTime as Utc:

Step 1 - Initial date

var initialDtm = DateTime.Now;

Step 2 - Format date as willing ("yyyyMMddHHmmss")

var formattedDtm = DateTime.ParseExact(initialDtm.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss"), "yyyyMMddHHmmss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);    

Step 3 - Specify kind of date (Utc)

var specifiedDtm = DateTime.SpecifyKind(formattedDtm, DateTimeKind.Utc);


Chances are slim that any of the above answers wouldn't has solved your problem. Nonetheless, I'm sharing my method which always works for me for different format of datetimes.

//Definition   
     public static DateTime ConvertPlainStringToDatetime(string Date, string inputFormat, string  outputFormat)
            {
                DateTime date;
                CultureInfo enUS = new CultureInfo("en-US");
                DateTime.TryParseExact(Date, inputFormat, enUS,
                                    DateTimeStyles.AdjustToUniversal, out date);

                string formatedDateTime = date.ToString(outputFormat);
                return Convert.ToDateTime(formatedDateTime);   
            }
//Calling

    string oFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss";
    DateTime requiredDT = ConvertPlainStringToDatetime("20190205","yyyyMMddHHmmss", oFormat  );
    DateTime requiredDT = ConvertPlainStringToDatetime("20190508-12:46:42","yyyyMMdd-HH:mm:ss", oFormat);


After spent a lot of hours on Google search, I found the below solution as when I locally give date time, no exception while from other server, there was Error......... Date is not in proper format.. Before saving/ searching Text box date time in C#, just checking either the outer Serer Culture is same like database server culture.. Ex both should be "en-US" or must be both "en-GB" asp below snap shot.

C# DateTime to "YYYYMMDDHHMMSS" format

Even with different date format like (dd/mm/yyyy) or (yyyy/mm/dd), it will save or search accurately.
