C# DateTime to “YYYYMMDDHHMMSS” format

Question

I want to convert a C# DateTime to \"YYYYMMDDHHMMSS\" format. But I don\'t find a built in method to get this format? Any comments?

Answer 1

You can use a custom format string:

DateTime d = DateTime.Now;
string dateString = d.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss");

Substitute "hh" for "HH" if you do not want 24-hour clock time.
