We will often have a date as part of another class. The DateTime class includes both a date and time.
Please study the code below and add it to form load one line at a time.
DateTime today = System.DateTime.Now; this.Text = today.ToString(); // Example: 4/19/2018 10:58:32 AM this.Text = "" + today.TimeOfDay; // Example: 10:58:32.1336708 this.Text = "" + today.ToShortDateString(); // Example: 4/19/2018 this.Text = "" + today.Month; // Example: 4 this.Text = "" + today.DayOfWeek; // Example: Thursday this.Text = "" + today.Year; // Example: 2018 // The due date has just the month day and year, but not the time. // When we compare the due date to today we compare just the date part. DateTime dueDate = new DateTime(2018, 5, 21); //y,m,d if (dueDate.Date < today.Date) this.Text = "You are late"; else if (dueDate.Date == today.Date) this.Text = "It is due today"; else this.Text = "You still have time";
