Converting datetime

Zone: C# Programming Language

Tags: datetime

Why doesn't this work:

System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB");

textBox1.Text = "18/08/1980"
DateTime temp;

temp = Convert.ToDateTime(textBox1.Text, culture);
textBox2.Text = temp.ToShortDateString();

"Invalid datetime format"

Regardless of the date format in the textbox it should automatically convert it to a british date.

Thanks

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.
