[Solved] RadDatePicker

[nisha]

Hi,

I'm using DatePicker and I want achieve few modifications in the date format. I want the date format like dd-mm-yyyy but in datepicker i'm getting dd/mm/yyyy. I have given the DateRangeSeperator = "-" but its not working. Also I want to remove to time stamp after date. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Nisha,


You can achieve this by setting properties: DateFormat and DisplayDateFormat

ASPX:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="RadDatePicker1" runat="server">
    <DateInput DateFormat="dd-MM-yyyy" DisplayDateFormat="dd-MM-yyyy">
    </DateInput>
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

Hi Shinu,

Thanks for the reply, I'm getting the required date format. But in code behind when I retrieve the value of that textbox, it should be in the same format. For eg, I have given
string date = RadDatePicker1.SelectedDate.ToString();
output for date is "19/01/2009 12:00:00 AM"
I want it as "19-01-2009"
How do I achieve this?

Hello Nisha,


You can do it from code behind. Have a look at the following code.

C#:
    string date1 = RadDatePicker1.SelectedDate.Value.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy");
