title: Convert string to mm/dd/yyyy datetime
body: <p>I'm trying to convert string which comes from textbox, for example in this format '03/24/2014' to DateTime. This is what I'm trying:</p>
  <pre><code>CultureInfo us = new CultureInfo(&quot;en-US&quot;);                    
  dtAssemblyDate = DateTime.ParseExact(txtOperationSignatureDate.Value, &quot;dd/MM/yyyy&quot;, us);
  </code></pre>
  <p>or</p>
  <pre><code>dtAssemblyDate = DateTime.ParseExact(txtOperationSignatureDate.Value, &quot;dd/MM/yyyy&quot;, null);
  </code></pre>
  <p>But no luck and I'm getting exceptions that the value cannot be casted as DateTime. How can I fix this problem?</p>
