You can make the application fully compatible with the date and time that is used by MySql  When the application runs at runtime provide this code  First Go to the Application Events  In the list of tools   Go to the project Project Properties Select the Application tab View Application Events   This will open a new file  This file contains code used at the start of the application   Write this code in that new file    Partial Friend Class MyApplication      Private Sub MyApplication Startup ByVal sender As Object  ByVal e As Microsoft VisualBasic ApplicationServices StartupEventArgs  Handles Me Startup         My Application ChangeCulture  en           My Application ChangeUICulture  en           My Application Culture DateTimeFormat ShortDatePattern    yyyy-MM-dd          My Application Culture DateTimeFormat LongDatePattern    yyyy-MM-dd          My Application Culture DateTimeFormat LongTimePattern    HH mm ss          My Application Culture DateTimeFormat ShortTimePattern    HH mm ss      End Sub   End Class

Rather than changing the connection string  you can use the IsValidDateTime property of the MySqlDateTime object to help you determine if you can cast the object as a DateTime   I had a scenario where I was trying to load data from an  UpdateTime  column that was only explicitly set when there was an update to the row  as opposed to the InsertedTime which was always set   For this case  I used the MySqlDataReader GetMySqlDateTime method like so   using  MySqlDataReader reader   await MySqlHelper ExecuteReaderAsync             if  await reader ReadAsync                  DateTime  updateTime   reader GetMySqlDateTime  UpdateTime   IsValidDateTime    DateTime  reader  UpdateTime     null

Pull the datetime value down as a string and do a DateTime ParseExact value   ddd MMM dd hh mm ss yyyy   culture  styles   You would just need to set the date format up for the date you are returning from the database  Most likely it s yyyy-MM-dd HH mm ss  At least is is for me    Check here more info on the DateTime ParseExact
