DateTime and CultureInfo

Question

I have this in my code   var date1   DateTime ParseExact date   dd MM yyyy HH mm ss   System Globalization CultureInfo InvariantCulture     And when my current cultur is dutch  nl-NL  instead of May 1st I get January 5th   I think the error is in the second parameter dd MM yyyy HH mm ss   Is there a way to fix this using the CultureInfo class

InvariantCulture is similar to en-US  so i would use the correct CultureInfo instead   var dutchCulture   CultureInfo CreateSpecificCulture  nl-NL    var date1   DateTime ParseExact date   dd MM yyyy HH mm ss   dutchCulture     Demo     And what about when the culture is en-us  Will I have to code for   every single language there is out there     If you want to know how to display the date in another culture like  en-us   you can use date1 ToString CultureInfo CreateSpecificCulture  en-US
