I have a datagrid which one of the row display the datetime in this way:
2/6/2004 1:00:00


The code is like that:
Code:
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Date">
 <ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" text='<%# (DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"schStartTime")) %>' id="DateLabel"></asp:Label> 
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>

How can I modify the code so that it display the datetime like it:
(a) 2 Jun; and
(b) 01:00?


Thank you
 
Date formatting

Look at Data Formatting Expression in the Columns property.

{0} : show you the date (like you're seeing it right now)
{0:d}: show you the date in ShortDate format

More info on this here

[EDIT]
So for your case ...
1) {0: dd MM}
2) {0: hh:mm}

Here you go
