Hello, friends,

What is the best way to determine a string is in valid dateTime format?

Thank you guys. I used DateTime.TryParse().

Also, another question: How to quickly convert a collection into an array?

Try casting it to a DateTime inside of a try...catch? Use RegEx?

It depends on the collection. ArrayList and List<T> have a parameterless
ToArray method, which creates an array containing elements from the
collection. In addition, ICollection and ICollection<T> exposes a CopyTo
method, which can be used in the following manner:

Widget[] arr = new Widget[coll.Count];
coll.CopyTo(arr, 0);

DateTime.TryParse() and such.
