why do you rely on an implicit Int16-to-Int32 conversion?
I would recommend an explicit cast to make things more clear.

That's right. You can't have enough casting and converting going on.

Rediculous .. you need to convert both to decimal to guarentee precision
and get rid of that pesky implicit conversion ...
if(Convert.ToDecimal(Convert.ToInt16(chkdate.Length.ToString())) != Convert.ToDecimal("11")) {
doNoRealValidationCheck_NeverLearnRegex();
}
I'm largely language agnostic
After a while they all bug me

I think this improves the code a lot… Extra precisions and conversions to make sure we're getting exactly what we want.
((Decimal)Convert.ToDecimal(chkdate.Length.ToString()) != (Decimal)Convert.ToDecimal(((Decimal)(11.0000000000000000000000000000)).ToString())).ToString() == Boolean.TrueString;
The optimizing JITter is going to have fun with this one…

You left out the string.compare call with the ignore case option, and specifying the CultureInfo on the ToString calls.
This blanket smells like ham

He could've written:
if (Convert.ToChar(chkdate.Length.ToString().ToCharArray()[0]) != new String("1").ToCharArray()[0])
{
if (Convert.ToChar(chkdate.Length.ToString().ToCharArray()[1]) != new String("1").ToCharArray()[0])
{
return false;
}
}

Except you forgot to convert the char types to some int type to ensure it would be a numeric comparison.

Not so fast, your code does not work while his does. 
[Hint] Your code will not return false for strings of length 1, 10, 101, etc.

Of course not ! Thats an exercise for the next poor soul that works on the code :p

For checking whether the string contains a valid date the code is crap. (SCNR)
This shows what the results of "high level" programming languages are.

Why can't not ONE of you folkes be grown up enough to simply say that the rubbish:
://it checks if it contains 11 char (dd/MMM/yyyy)
if (Convert.ToInt16(chkdate.Length.ToString()) != 11)
{
// Do something if not.
}
SHOULD be:
:// it checks if it contains 11 char (dd/MMM/yyyy)
if (chkdate.Length != 11)
{
// Do something if not.
}
How hard can it be?
It's OK to pinpoint bad code like that but it's not OK not to come up with a useable alternative.

Michael,
Is your sense of humor having a bad day?
But if we are geting serious, I'd like to point out that your question contains a double negative and means the opposite of your apparent intended meaning.

Shouldn't the comparison do this?

...Double negative... I give up... SS... forget it...
Not beeing 100% into C# (I'm c/cpp) I suppose that this issue is something in the area of 'to get the types right' right? (ough double 'right' ... sorry)
If this is string: chkdate, then this is int: chkdate.length and then I compare 11 to int which is ok, or?
