Parsing a date string written in long format

[James_Smith]

Hi All,

I am trying to parse dates written in long-word format, i.e. “Tuesday 3rd December 2019” to a DateTime

Has anyone dealt with this? Any suggestions appreciated!

@James_Smith Try like below.

Str=  “Tuesday 3rd December 2019”

DateTime.ParseExact(str.Replace("st","").Replace("rd","").Replace("th",""),"dddd d MMMM yyyy",Nothing).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")

Thanks!
