Solution 1

DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).ToString("ddMMYYYY"); The casing may be wrong, but that's about it.

This is really both basic and widely documented, I'd be concerned that you could not work it out, but you're using ASP.NET.

I am sorry for this but not giving the proper result. It should be DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).ToString("ddMMyyyy");

As I said, the casing may be wrong.

Solution 2

maybe it could help you :

C#

DateTime yesterdayDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays( -1 );
Label1.Text = yesterdayDate.ToString();

for that you can use,

If it shows todays date, it's because it's tomorrow on the server.

Solution 4

try this

C#

string YesterdayDate= DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).ToString("ddMMyy");
        Label1.Text = YesterdayDate;

hope this will solve your problem.
