Solution 1

if you are getting error inside the condition, then convert the string to datetime like
Convert.ToDateTime(TempDate);

String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. PLZ check date format :23-04-2013 12:00::00:AM

hv a look at this...
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/csharpgeneral/thread/197a243b-1211-44c1-a947-a3375c94b373/
where the datetime column value is assigned to another datetime in C#...
DateTime? value = (DateTime?)resultSet["myDateColumn"];
Hope this helps
