Solution 1

First, convert it to a DateTime:

C#

DateTime dt;
if (!DateTime.TryParseExact(@"17-11-2017 13:59:00", "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, DateTimeStyles.None, out dt))
    {
    // Report problem to user
    return;
    }

(if you have it in a DateTime, you can skip this part)
Then use ToString to format it for presentation:

C#

string formatted = dt.ToString(@"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff");

Solution 2

If you want to change the Date Format, then call StringFormat against the DateTime value passing a custom format. Here is the documentation (with code examples) on how to do it:
