I am doing an asp.net mvc project and I need to convert the string of "06/22/2019 00:00:00" to a valid DateTime type in format of 2019/06/22 without the part of hour and minute and second

You can use DateTime.ParseExact, here is an example :
http://net-informations.com/q/faq/stringdate.html
Finally, it should look like this :
string s = "06/22/2019 00:00:00";
DateTime myDate = DateTime.ParseExact(s, "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss",System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
Debug.WriteLine(myDate.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy"));

You can do this:
var dateString = "06/22/2019 00:00:00";
var datePart = dateString.Split(' ')[0];
var date = DateTime.Parse(datePart);
Though remember that DateTime will still have a default value for the time (12:00 AM), if you want the Date part only from the object, use date.Date which will return an instance with the default time (mentioned earlier).

DateTime contains default Time even if you access DateTime.Date. You can achieve format of date by converting Date into string.
Something like,
DateTime myDate = DateTime.ParseExact("06/22/2019 00:00:00", "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
string dateInFormat = $"{myDate.Year}/{myDate.Month}/{myDate.Day}";
POC : .net Fiddle

You convert the string to a DateTime object and then to display just the date portion you can use ToShortDateString like this:
var myDateTime = DateTime.Parse( "06/22/2019 00:00:00") //presumably use a variable here instead.
var date = myDateTime.ToShortDateString();
How you want to display this can be done using the CultureInfo part as shown here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.datetime.toshortdatestring?view=netframework-4.8

I need to convert a string with date to valid c# date time object.
input string example = "2015-03-24T12:31:33.8700000"
output c# datetime
I tried doing this
DateTime.ParseExact(x.claimDetails.clmDOA, "yyyy-MM-dd HHmmss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
Buit it gave exception
String was not recognized as a valid DateTime
Please Note: I googled thoroghly . Somehow i couldnt find any string
with "T" included as in datetime string.
Prior to downvoting if one can suggest me exactly where a question is answered with datetime string containg a T in it or of this format.yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss.fffffff

DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse(example);

DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(example, "yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss.fffffff", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
Should work for you.

From DateTime.ParseExact documentation;
Converts the specified string representation of a date and time to its
DateTime equivalent. The format of the string representation must
match a specified format exactly or an exception is thrown.
In your case, they are not.
You need to use T as a string literal delimiter, specify : as a TimeSeparator and seconds fraction (with fffffff specifier) as well.
var dt = DateTime.ParseExact("2015-03-24T12:31:33.8700000",
"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.fffffff",
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

DateTime.ParseExact(example , "yyyy MM dd HH:mm:ss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

how to display only date from DateTime [duplicate]

i m getting date from sql server database and it is displaying datetime as 1/15/2015 12:00:00 AM.
code in c# i used is:
dob_lbl.Text = reader[6].ToString();
//this is extracted using Sqlconnection so it's in array format.
i need only date to display.pls help.

try this:
string strDate = reader[6].ToString();
dob_lbl.Text = DateTime.ParseExact(strDate, "M/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt",
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).ToString("yyyy/MM/dd");

The ToShortDateString method of DateTime should help with this.
Use it like:
string strDate = reader[6].ToString();
DateTime dateTime = DateTime.Parse(strDate);
string justDateStr = dateTime.ToShortDateString();

You could simply split the string and use the first part of the resulting array.
Something like:
dob_lbl.Text = reader[6].ToString().Split()[0];

I have a datetime value below,
23/07/2014 04:15:00
How can i get date as below string value
23/07/2014
How can i get hour as below string value
04:15 AM/PM (depends hour time)
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

I'd parse the string to DateTime first to avoid string manipulation.
var str = "23/07/2014 04:15:00";
var dt = DateTime.ParseExact(str, "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
var date = dt.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);//23/07/2014
var time = dt.ToString("hh:mm tt", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);//04:15 AM
If you have the value as DateTime you can skip ParseExact part.

I'm not sure if you really use a DateTime instead of a string, but you should. If not, you can use DateTime.Parse/DateTime.TryParseExact to get a DateTime from a string.
DateTime has a method ToShortDateString
string dateOnly = dt.ToShortDateString();
// or to force / as separator even if current culture has different separator
dateOnly = dt.ToString("d", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
// hour+minute and AM/PM designator:
string hour = DateTime.Now.ToString("hh:mm tt", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

I strongly feel like taking a risk to answer your question but.. anyway.
How can i get date as below string value
DateTime dt = new DateTime(2014, 7, 23, 4, 15, 0);
Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString(#"dd\/MM\/yyyy")); // 23/07/2014
I escaped / character because it has a special meaning in custom date and time format strings. It means as; replace me with the current culture date separator. Take a look "/" Custom Format Specifier for more information.
How can i get hour as below string value
Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString("HH:mm tt", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture));
Output will be;
04:15 AM

The line of code DateTime d = DateTime.Today; results in 10/12/2011 12:00:00 AM. How can I get only the date part.I need to ignore the time part when I compare two dates.

DateTime is a DataType which is used to store both Date and Time. But it provides Properties to get the Date Part.
You can get the Date part from Date Property.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.datetime.date.aspx
DateTime date1 = new DateTime(2008, 6, 1, 7, 47, 0);
Console.WriteLine(date1.ToString());
// Get date-only portion of date, without its time.
DateTime dateOnly = date1.Date;
// Display date using short date string.
Console.WriteLine(dateOnly.ToString("d"));
// Display date using 24-hour clock.
Console.WriteLine(dateOnly.ToString("g"));
Console.WriteLine(dateOnly.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm"));
// The example displays the following output to the console:
// 6/1/2008 7:47:00 AM
// 6/1/2008
// 6/1/2008 12:00 AM
// 06/01/2008 00:00

There is no way to "discard" the time component.
DateTime.Today is the same as:
DateTime d = DateTime.Now.Date;
If you only want to display only the date portion, simply do that - use ToString with the format string you need.
For example, using the standard format string "D" (long date format specifier):
d.ToString("D");

When comparing only the date of the datatimes, use the Date property. So this should work fine for you
datetime1.Date == datetime2.Date

DateTime d = DateTime.Today.Date;
Console.WriteLine(d.ToShortDateString()); // outputs just date
if you want to compare dates, ignoring the time part, make an use of DateTime.Year and DateTime.DayOfYear properties.
code snippet
DateTime d1 = DateTime.Today;
DateTime d2 = DateTime.Today.AddDays(3);
if (d1.Year < d2.Year)
Console.WriteLine("d1 < d2");
else
if (d1.DayOfYear < d2.DayOfYear)
Console.WriteLine("d1 < d2");

you can use a formatstring
DateTime time = DateTime.Now;
String format = "MMM ddd d HH:mm yyyy";
Console.WriteLine(time.ToString(format));
