There's also DateTime.ParseExact which is also worth knowing about.

There's also TryParse and TryParseExact which do the same thing, but won't throw an exception if the date is not valid - will just return a bool.

Using that string format will give you a lot of issues later, such as what is "03/04/2009"?

try using DateTime.ParseExact.

Have a look at the DateTime.Parse or DateTime.ParseExact methods.

Simplest case:

var result = DateTime.Parse(str);
