    Question VB6 Date Picker

    I Have a date picker on the form and I have set the properties of this to custom and the customformat to yyyy-MM-dd. This all looks good on screen. But when I run the application the dtpicker1.value will be dd/MM/yyyy. Does any one know how to format the dtpicker1.value to be yyyy-MM-dd.

    Thanks for any help on this matter

    A date value is like a number: it's just a value, without an intrinsic format. You can use VB's Format function to display the date in a specific format.
