private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string strDate = "2002-10-03";
DateTime dtDate = Convert.ToDateTime(strDate);
or
DateTime dtDate = DateTime.Parse(strDate);
MessageBox.Show(dtDate.ToString());
}
Thanks

You can convert a string to a DateTime using one of these methods:
Convert.ToDateTime
DateTime.Parse
DateTime.TryParse
Here are the links to the MSDN docs for these methods:
