Answer 1

DateTime structure always has the Date and Time stored in it. If you need to extract the date alone as text you can do the following.

var date = DateTime.Now.ToString("d");
Console.WriteLine(date);

This will print the date as in the format as specified by the culture set in the system. The list of standard datetime format strings supported by dotnet framework can be found here
