Formating bound data

[mych]

Hi I'm trying to format a datetime field to just show the date. The datetime is bound to an asp:label and I have tried the following....

Text= String.Format("{0:D}", '<%# Bind("CReviewDate") %>')
and
Text= String.Format("{0:D}", <%# Bind("CReviewDate") %>)
and 
Text= String.Format("{0:D}", <%# Bind('CReviewDate') %>)
and
Text= String.Format("{0:D}", <%# Bind(CReviewDate) %>)

In all cases I get a green wavy line under the equation and the tip help says "Validation (ASP.Net): If this attribute value is enclosed in quotation marks, the quotation marks must match.

String.Format("{0}", DateTime.Now) works fine.
What have I done wrong....

I've not failed! Just found 100 ways that don't work...yet!

If the data is coming from a database, then the simplest way is using:

CONVERT(VARCHAR(12), CReviewDate, 101)

Bluto: What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? No!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.
