Try

Response.write(DateTime.Parse(Request.Params("expire")).ToString("MMM yyyy"))

Glanced up at my screen and thought I had coded the Matrix...  Turns out, I just fell asleep on the keyboard.

I think CodeCruiser's format should be this instead:

ToString("MMMM dd, yyyy")

Hi,

You can use following code,
Just make sure that Request.Params("expire") contains valid date.

Response.Write(Convert.ToDateTime(Request.Params("expire"))).ToString("MMMM dd, yyyy"))

Thanks
