TryParsemethod is either true or false, and if true, the specifiedoutparameter contains the parsedDateTimevalue. If the return value is false, the specified string was not in a recognizableDateTimestring format. Additionally, if you know for sure what the format of the string will be, you can useParseExact.

That's not what I would call a reasonable practice. I prefer my DateTimes to be valid in some way (and use
new DateTime(0)to accomplish that).".45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly" - JSOP, 2010

Of course you can't. But I don't know how they are working with the actual data and displaying it. I am starting to regret posting an answer to his question. :sigh:

It is a possible and valid scenario, whether you John, agree with it or not. Just saying... For instance, shipping dates - they are usually null until something actually ships.

Yes. Yes, I do. If I wasn't always an assh*le, I would disappoint my legions of fans. Besides, me being an assh*le is really the only constant in life any more that absolutely EVERYBODY can count on. Beyond that, I was just poking you in the ribs. If you're honestly butt-hurt, I can call a waaa-mbulance for you. :) BTW, I'm the one that voted your original answer a 5.

We can argue the validity of nulls all day. I don't like 'em, and I strive to resolve them in some way.
