    Why do people do this? To make my brain hurt?

    DateTime startDate = new DateTime(
    DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).Year,
    DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).Month,
    DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).Day);

    DateTime endDate = new DateTime(
    DateTime.Now.Year,
    DateTime.Now.Month,
    DateTime.Now.Day);

    I've done something similar to the second one of those, i.e.

    DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
    DateTime midnight = new DateTime(now.Year, now.Month, now.Day);

    Am I missing an elegant way to do that?

      DateTime endDate = DateTime.Today;

      Today is Now with the time truncated.

        Erm, I was just logging on to report myself for this. It looks very similar :-)

        System::Drawing::Rectangle clientRectangle = System::Drawing::Rectangle(ClientRectangle.X, ClientRectangle.Y, ClientRectangle.Width, ClientRectangle.Height);

        I have no defense, guilty as charged :-(

          It would be interesting to have a coding horrors forum that only allowed self-reported craziness.

              Thanks, I'll try to remember that! Not that intuitive a name, to me.

                One could also use DateTime.Now.Date;.

                  LOL It had been some time since I checked this forum and when I saw the title of this post I thought there would be tons of Rebbeca Black references (I'm writing this as of FRIDAY, September 7th)

                    How would that work for people who suffer from hypochondria? ;P
