    Dim verdat1 As Date = "05/07/2012"
    conex.Open()
    Dim ds As New DataSet
    Dim dt As New DataTable
    ds.Tables.Add(dt)
    Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter("select codigo,data,horario from alteraca where data = '" & verdat1 & "' ", conex)

With

verdat1.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")

You can select how the date is converted to a string.

Also, you can set the dateTimePicker Custom Format as you wish :

dateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom
dateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = "MM/dd/yyyy"

Actually, a better (and safer way) to do the query is to use Parameters and Using statements. The Using statement automatically closes the connection, commands and adapter.

Dim caixa As Integer = ComboBox1.SelectedItem
Dim verdat As Date = DateTimePicker1.Text
Dim verdat1 As Date = "05/07/2012"
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim dt As New DataTable

Using conex as New SQLConnection(conxst)
  conex.Open()
  Using cmdex as New SQLCommand("select codigo,data,horario from alteraca where data = @DATE " , conxst)
   cmdex.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DATE",verdat1)
   Using da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmdex)
     da.Fill(dt)
   End Using
  End Using
End Using

You shouldn't use string representation of a value when you already have binary representation.

Dim dt As New DataTable
Using conex As New SqlConnection(conxst)
    conex.Open()

    Using cmd As New SqlCommand("select codigo, data, horario from alteraca where data = @data", conex)
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@data", DateTimePicker1.Value)

        Using da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
            da.Fill(dt)
        End Using
    End Using

End Using

You can convert the date like this:

verdat1.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")

In sql query -use to_date to convert String to date -and to char for reverse

In your case select codigo,data,horario from alteraca where data = to_date('" & verdat1 & "','dd/mm/yyyy') ", conex

here 'dd/mm/yyyy' is format of your variable...
