Convert DateTime in C# to yyyy-MM-dd format and Store it to MySql DateTime Field

Question

I am trying to convert DateTime format to yyyy-MM-dd format and store it to DateTime object. But it gives me the System DateTime

Answer 1

Have you tried?

var isoDateTimeFormat = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.DateTimeFormat;

// "2013-10-10T22:10:00"
 dateValue.ToString(isoDateTimeFormat.SortableDateTimePattern); 

// "2013-10-10 22:10:00Z"    
dateValue.ToString(isoDateTimeFormat.UniversalSortableDateTimePattern)

Also try using parameters when you store the c# datetime value in the mySql database, this might help.
