Agreed - from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.datetime.toshortdatestring(VS.85).aspx the ShortDatePattern of EN-US is "M/d/yyyy", which will trim leading zeros and use "/" as the seperator not "-".

@Zhaph: the date is reparsed and passed in the URL so - seperation is necessary.

This didn't work for my purposes (in whole) but modifying it to...Convert.ToDateTime(datDate).ToString("MM-dd-yyyy");worked a treat. Thanks

A:
Can't you use the string.Format after you've done the conversion?
ie return string.Format("{0:d}", datDate);

Yeah, dunno what I was thinking, Mehrdad's answer is the one that should work
