DateTime.ParseExact() does not grok 24-hour time values?
c#, cultureinfo, datetime
Solution
"hh" is the 12-hour clock format (01 to 12). You need to use "HH" for a 24 hour clock.
DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(time, "HH:mm", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
Problem
This line of code: ``` DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(time, "hh:mm", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture); ``` parses a "time" value of "12:45" just fine, but throws an exception of "13:00" Should I be using some other CultureInfo value, or do I need to append a "pm" to hour values above 12, or ... ? Error message is: System.FormatException was unhandled Message=String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.
