C#: Month field not displaying

Question

Hi. I need some C# expert help.

I have the DOB dropdown and I already got the Day and Year field out to display but not the month. Is there any ways that you could help?

Here are my codes:

int col = 0;

arrDOB = new ArrayList();

DateTime dob = Convert.ToDateTime(varDOB);

if (varDOB != "")

{

if (col == 0)

{

//Populates the day

ddlDay.Items.FindByValue(Convert.ToString(dob.Day)).Selected = true;

arrDOB.Add(dob.Day);

}

else if (col == 1)

{

//Populates the month

ddlMonth.SelectedValue = dob.Month.ToString();

// ddlMonth.Items.FindByValue(Convert.ToString(dob.Month)).Selected = true;

arrDOB.Add(dob.Month);

// ddlMonth.Visible = true;

}

//Populates the year

ddlYear.Items.FindByValue(Convert.ToString(dob.Year)).Selected = true;

arrDOB.Add(dob.Year);

}

Thanks. :))

Remove the col variable and it should load all combos properly.. arrDOB = new ArrayList(); DateTime dob = Convert.ToDateTime(varDOB); if (varDOB != ) { //Populates the day ddlDay.Items.FindByValue(Convert.ToString(dob.Day)).Selected = true; arrDOB.Add(dob.Day); //Populates the month ddlMonth.SelectedValue = dob.Month.ToString(); // ddlMonth.Items.FindByValue(Convert.ToString(dob.Month)).Selected = true; arrDOB.Add(dob.Month); // ddlMonth.Visible = true; //Populates the year ddlYear.Items.FindByValue(Convert.ToString(dob.Year)).Selected = true; arrDOB.Add(dob.Year); }

Hi Nur I guess your month dropdownlist has the names of the months. Like January February... Not 123... That's the reason. Change your 'ddlMonth.SelectedValue = dob.Month.ToString();' line to following. ddlMonth.SelectedValue = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.GetMonthName( dob.Month); If my answer helpful please tick ' Do you like this answer ' checkbox.
