display date and time in label

[jds1207]

I am trying to display the current date and time in a label. Here is my code: Dim rightNow As DateTime = DateTime.Now datetime.Text = String.Format("{0:d)", rightNow) & String.Format("{0:T)", rightNow) This code works in my other two applications but this time it underlines DateTime.Now and says Now is not a member of System.Windows.Forms.Label. Any ideas?

If datetime is a label or a text, it doesn't have any property named as NOW. Now indicates the date and time for now. It is a function. :wtf: Dim myLabel as new label label.text = Now.toString

What a curious mind needs to discover knowledge is noting else than a pin-hole.

I found out what the problem was. Here is my code: Dim rightNow As DateTime = DateAndTime.Now lbltime.Text = String.Format("{0:T}", rightNow) lbldate.Text = String.Format("{0:d}", rightNow) Thanks for the help! jds1207

It looks like you named your label the same name as the function, visual basic is not case sensitive, try renaming your label
