C # output format: DateTime.Now Month

Question

In this C # code snippet, DateTime.Now.Month.ToString() returns 7 as output.

I would like to get 07 as the return value.

What can I do to add a leading zero when a month has only 1 digit?

Answer 1

 DateTime.Now.Month.ToString("d2")

Format a two-digit integer, as suggested by Mehrdad, or format DateTime itself to give you a two-digit month:

 /* Date strings */ public static string TodayNum = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd"); // eg 07 public static string ThisMonthNum = DateTime.Now.ToString("MM"); // eg 03 public static string ThisMonthShort = DateTime.Now.ToString("MMM"); // eg Mar public static string ThisMonthLong = DateTime.Now.ToString("MMMM"); // eg March public static string ThisYearNum = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy"); // eg 2014 

Answer 4
