I am pretty new to VB.NET.

I need to print the current date whatever the date is in the format of MMDDYY? The Date should not be hard coded and should take whatever the current date is.

For Example if today date is 11/5/2009 it should print in 110509 (MMDDYY)

Any help is really appreciated.
 
I have to get the previous date in MMDDYY format.

I am trying this but getting output as 11DDYY. Not able to figure out why i am getting the value instead 0f 112309
-------------------------------
Dim strModDate as date
Dim strTodayDate as string

strModDate = DateTime.Today.AddDays(-1)
Console.WriteLine(strModDate)
strTodayDate = strModDate.ToString("MMDDYY")
Console.WriteLine(strTodayDate)

Output from code:11DDYY
Desired Output: 112309

-------------------------------------

Any help is appreciated.
