I have a gridview column, where I need to display time in format : 3/2/2012 1:22 PM
but my Db saves as 3/2/2012 1:22:42 PM
I want to remove seconds from this text. I can remove it using (MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS) but how do i include the AM/PM from db column ?
If the database provides the date as a DateTime, try to set the DataFormatString property of the GridView column to match your needs. For example
{0:MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt}
prints the column like 03/01/2012 03:09 PM .
