I have a problem getting this data format right from a string "21/10/01", I

try datavalue(), but it won't let me 

do it.  strCDate.text is 21/10/01.

my statement looks like this



MyCommand.Parameters.Add(New OLEDBParameter("@CDate", OLEDbType.DATE))

MyCommand.Parameters("@CDate").Value = strCDate.text



error message: System.FormatException: String was not recognized as a valid

DateTime.
