thank's in advance

DateTime MyDate = DateTime.ParseExact("7/16/2010", "M/dd/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

do you need to delimit your date with double-quotes?

MyDate = Convert.ToDateTime("7/16/2010")

as it's converting from string?

DateTime.Parse("7/16/2010");

Here is a link to the DateTime.Parse documentation.

Enjoy!

MyDate = #7/16/2010#
but first you have to switch to VB ;-)
