Android Question Weekday of a date

[clooney48]

Why do I get "Mittwoch" as result instead of "Dienstag" with this code?

DefaultValue = "10/12/2013 22:12"
Dim d1()
    d1 = Regex.Split(" ", DefaultValue)
    DateTicks = DateTime.DateParse(d1(0))
    Dim df As String = DateTime.DateFormat
    DateTime.DateFormat = "EEEE"
    Dim res As String = DateTime.Date(DateTicks)
    Log("Heute ist: " & res)

You should declare DateTicks as Long:

Dim DateTicks As Long = DateTime.DateParse(d1(0))

I think that you are confusing the month with the days.

You probably expect this format:

DateTime.DateFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy"

Yes, the wrong type of DateTicks was the problem. Thanks!
