With DateTimePicker1
            .Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom
            .ShowUpDown = True
            '// .CustomFormat = "h" '// 12Hour.day

Hi,
acutally i want to save only the Hour part in the Database.I have set the format,custom format.
I have also tried using .hour but when i save i dont get 12 in the Hour value.
I want to save Data in Date column,right now according to my structure im saving data in this manner as shown below:
1/1/1900 10:53:00 AM
but i want to save it in this manner=>1/1/1900 10:00:00 AM
Even if the user selects the time in the Date Time Picker as 10:30:25 AM it should still save as 10:00:00 Am.
Properties of my DateTimePicker are:dtp.CustomFormat=hh
dtp.format=Time
dtp.ShowUpDown=True
Please guide how cn i do this

Hello

U can set the CustomFormat property of the picker to hh:00:00 tt
So that it can take only the hour part and not the minutes and seconds
