Why when I put on DataFormatString: {0:dd/MM/yyyy} on a boundfield at the 
gridview it lists: 24/01/1981 00:00:00 and I want just Date...

Can you help me ?
C# 2.0 VS 2005 asp.net

Hi Paulo,
what source of data are you using for your grid view? Is it a database? If 
so what is returining your query and especially what type is used for your 
date type. It has to be DateTime.

Ladislav

Thanks for replying, the source came from a sql serve, and the field type is 
DateTime...

Thanks

Hi Paulo,
you can use this workaround:
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Date">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <asp:Label runat="server" ID="myDate" Text='<%# 
((DateTime)Eval("Last_Update")).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") %>' />
                    </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>

I am using all fields except TemplateField very rarely. 

Regards,
Ladislav

Use {0:d}
also - make sure HTMLEncode property is set to false

Hi again Paulo,
I tryed it at my own and I found a trick :) Set HtmlEncode="false" for your 
BoundField.
