Imports System.Globalization Imports System.Threading.Thread ... Dim newCulture As CultureInfo = New CultureInfo(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name) newCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern = "dd-MMM-yy" CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = newCulture MsgBox(CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern.ToString)

C# // we need to have imported System.Globalization // using System.Globalization; // fetch the en-GB culture CultureInfo ukCulture = new CultureInfo("en-GB"); // pass the DateTimeFormat information to DateTime.Parse DateTime myDateTime = DateTime.Parse("18/09/2004",ukCulture.DateTimeFormat); VB.NET ' we need to have imported System.Globalization ' Imports System.Globalization ' fetch the en-GB culture Dim ukCulture As CultureInfo = New CultureInfo("en-GB") ' pass the DateTimeFormat information to DateTime.Parse Dim myDateTime As DateTime = DateTime.Parse("18/09/2004", ukCulture.DateTimeFormat)

show here good code sample will help using System; using System.Globalization; using System.Threading; public class DateToStringExample { public static void Main() { CultureInfo currentCulture = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture; DateTime exampleDate = new DateTime(2008, 5, 1, 18, 32, 6); // Display the date using the current (en-US) culture. Console.WriteLine(exampleDate.ToString()); // Change the current culture to fr-FR and display the date. Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture( "fr-FR" ); Console.WriteLine(exampleDate.ToString()); // Change the current culture to ja-JP and display the date. Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture( "ja-JP" ); Console.WriteLine(exampleDate.ToString()); // Restore the original culture Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = currentCulture; } } // The example displays the following output to the console: // 5/1/2008 6:32:06 PM // 01/05/2008 18:32:06 // 2008/05/01 18:32:06 for reference

hello Resmy You can find dateformat according to united kingdom with the help of System.Globalization.CultureInfo class System.Globalization.Cultu reInfo DTFormat_culture = new System.Globalization.Cultu reInfo("en -GB"); string DtFormat = culture.DateTimeFormat.FullDateTimePattern.ToString(); after that you can edit some registry value of following: HKEY_Users --> S-1-5-21-1390067357-1770027372-682003330-1003 --> Control Panel --> International Thank you
