Convert Datetime? property value to string format

Accepted answer

You'll need to cast the nullable DateTime to an ordinary DateTime before you can apply that overload. Something like this:

string s = (test != null) ? ((DateTime)test).ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") : "";

or you can use the HasValue and Value properties:

string s = test.HasValue ? test.Value.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") : "";

Just try the following syntax

DateTime? s = DateTime.Now;

Console.WriteLine(s.Value.ToString("mm/dd/yyyy"));

Check this is correct answer if it really helped.

If its an object or nullable variable, then you cant directly convert to string.

The actual datetime value is present inside test.Value..

So instead of trying test.Tostring("mm/dd/yyyy")

try test.Value.Tostring("mm/dd/yyyy")
