title: Using VB.NET to format a date
body: <p>Just started upgrading to VB.Net from VB6.</p>
  
  <pre><code>txtFrom.Text = "1/8"
  txtFrom.Text = Format(txtFrom.Text, "dd/MM/yyyy")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This code produces <code>DD/MM/YYYY</code> in the text box.</p>
  
  <p>What should I do to produce <code>01/08/13</code>?</p>
