Is the开发者_开发技巧re any way to get exact below format of current date- 18 Aug 2010. I tried -

 string dt = DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString().ToString();
  dt = dt.Replace("-", " ");//return 18 Aug 10.

But I want the exact format: 18 Aug 2010

If you want to always use the English month abbreviation regardless of the thread culture, you should specify the formatting culture as well. e.g.:

DateTime.Now.ToString("dd MMM yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

.ToString("dd MMM yyyy");

or

.ToString("d MMM yyyy");

Depending on if you want the day part as for example "08 Aug" or "8 Aug"

DateTime.Now.ToString("d MMM yyyy");

This link has more information on formatting DateTime in C#

string formattedDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd MMM yyyy");

Reference: Custom DateTime Format Strings (MSDN).

string dt = DateTime.Now.ToString("d MMM yyyy");

string dt = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd MMM yyyy");
