Good day, I need help.
I have a datgridview Date column i would like Format "01/01/2009 23:00" and Not "01/01/2009 11:00 PM"
The closest I come is setting it to 01/01/2009 10:23 pm
I would like to display: 01/01/2009 22:23
The time is my problem, any ideas on formating the grid to show date

Hi,

By default the date and time are displayed using the computer's settings in the control-panel
You can specify custom display for that column by setting:

DataGridViewColumn.DefaultCellStyle.Format = "dd/MM/YYYY HH:mm"

See Custom Date and Time Format Strings

Please mark this post as answer if it helps you

Set your system time to display like military time, without AM/PM, and:
string time = DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString();
You must set your system time to use in way you like.

Maybe is there another way and if enyone know please tell us.
