You can also check if you are using Template Field.

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Submission Date">
<ItemTemplate>
<%#Eval("dbDate","{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:tt}")%>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Use the appropriate DataFormatString for the bound field.

<asp:BoundField DataField="YourDateField" HeaderText="SomeHeader" 
                    DataFormatString="{0:MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm tt}"  />

Alternatively, you could use DateFormatString="{0:g}" which is the general date/time pattern (short time). It would produce something like 08/19/2007 11:09 AM

To format a DATETIME value in a GridView, you can do it like this:

DataFormatString="{0:MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm tt}"

A suitable format string would be:

{0:MM-dd-yyyy H:mm tt}

A good resource on making custom format strings in .Net can be found at MSDN
