Converting VP.NET to C#

Hello Experts -

I am converting some VB.NET code to C#. Can someone please help me with the following block of code?

With _dstMemberData.Tables(MEMBER_DATA_TABLES.MEMBER_ACCOUNT).Rows(0) _
        _dtmLastActivity = IIf(IsDate(.Item("LastLoginDate").ToString().Trim()), _
        .Item("LastLoginDate").ToString().Trim(), DateTime.MinValue)
End With

Quick addition to the question...Does the following equal the same thing as above?

I also added the new IsDate method.

if (IsDate(_dstMemberData.Tables[(int)MEMBER_DATA_TABLES.MEMBER_PROFILE_INFO_DATA].Rows[0]
    ["LastLoginDate"].ToString().Trim()))
        _dtmLastActivityDate = 
            Convert.ToDateTime(_dstMemberData.Tables[(int)MEMBER_DATA_TABLES.MEMBER_PROFILE_INFO_DATA]
                .Rows[0]["LastLoginDate"].ToString().Trim()); 
else
    _dtmLastActivityDate = DateTime.MinValue;
 
// Method equivalent to IsDate in VB.NET
public static bool IsDate(object Expression)
    {
        string strDate = Expression.ToString();
        try
        {
            DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse(strDate);
            if (dt != DateTime.MinValue && dt != DateTime.MaxValue)
                return true;
            return false;
        }
        catch
        {
            return false;
        }
    }

Thanks for your time.

I had also tried the converter in the comment below but I found it included keywords that were not in C#. For example, it listed _dstMemberData.Tables[(int)MEMBER_DATA_TABLES.MEMBER_PROFILE_INFO_DATA].Rows[0].Item["LastLoginDate"]...

From what I've found, '.Item' does not exist in the C# context.
