    }
}

试试下面的方法，strDate是你的日期，格式为'MM/dd/yyyy'

var date = DateTime.Parse(strDate,new CultureInfo("en-US", true))

如果您不确定输入值，也可以如下所示使用DateTime.TryParseExact()。

DateTime outputDateTimeValue;
if (DateTime.TryParseExact("2009-05-08 14:40:52,531", "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,fff", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out outputDateTimeValue))
{
    return outputDateTimeValue;
}
else
{
    // Handle the fact that parse did not succeed
}

将此代码放入静态类>公共静态类ClassName{}

public static DateTime ToDateTime(this string datetime, char dateSpliter = '-', char timeSpliter = ':', char millisecondSpliter = ',')
{
   try
   {
      datetime = datetime.Trim();
      datetime = datetime.Replace("  ", " ");
      string[] body = datetime.Split(' ');
      string[] date = body[0].Split(dateSpliter);
      int year = date[0].ToInt();
      int month = date[1].ToInt();
      int day = date[2].ToInt();
      int hour = 0, minute = 0, second = 0, millisecond = 0;
      if (body.Length == 2)
      {
         string[] tpart = body[1].Split(millisecondSpliter);
         string[] time = tpart[0].Split(timeSpliter);
         hour = time[0].ToInt();
         minute = time[1].ToInt();
         if (time.Length == 3) second = time[2].ToInt();
         if (tpart.Length == 2) millisecond = tpart[1].ToInt();
      }
      return new DateTime(year, month, day, hour, minute, second, millisecond);
   }
   catch
   {
      return new DateTime();
   }
}

这样，你就可以使用

string datetime = "2009-05-08 14:40:52,531";
DateTime dt0 = datetime.TToDateTime();

DateTime dt1 = "2009-05-08 14:40:52,531".ToDateTime();
DateTime dt5 = "2009-05-08".ToDateTime();
DateTime dt2 = "2009/05/08 14:40:52".ToDateTime('/');
DateTime dt3 = "2009/05/08 14.40".ToDateTime('/', '.');
DateTime dt4 = "2009-05-08 14:40-531".ToDateTime('-', ':', '-');

试试这个

DateTime myDate = DateTime.Parse(dateString);

一个更好的方法是:

DateTime myDate;
if (!DateTime.TryParse(dateString, out myDate))
{
    // handle parse failure
}
