How to truncate a date in .net?

Question

Other than DateTime ctor (new DateTime (year, month, day)), is there any other way to truncate the date?

Answer 1

DateTime.Date

Returns only the date component (time is midnight).

Answer 2

DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();

In addition, ToString () is overloaded in DateTime, you can pass several dozen formatting options to it.
