In my calendar application I want to format the time to 12:00 PM.

I am using myTime.format("whateverformattype", null)

but it tells me that null is no longer supported and that I should
use System.DBnull .... but when I try that the compiler says that
DBnull is not a part of System? What am I missing?

Thanks,
Jamie

Jamie,

Don't have an exact solution to the problem, I had to do some date time
formatting recently and this article helped me a lot:

You're probably mixing up VB and C#.
In VB the code should be:
myTime.Format("whateverformattype", nothing)
In C#:
myTime.Format("whateverformattype", null);

hope that helps.
