Try this:
Dim date As Datetime = DateTime.ParseExact(_
yourString, "dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
This will throw an exception if yourString
does not match the format you specify. If you do not want an exception in this case then do this:
Dim date As Date
Date.TryParseExact(dateString, "dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, _
DateTimeStyles.None, date)
