I'm trying to convert format of a DateTime on my asp.net mvc web app.

I've this code :

```
date = Request["date"].AsDateTime().ToString("MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss");

```

That code works perfectly when the Request["date"] as only one digit for the day  

(like 08-03-2016) but when the date hava two digits date 
( like 15-03-2016 ),

it returns 01-01-0001... Can someone explains me why and tell me how to makeit better ?

Thanks in advance ! 

EDIT :

More of code I'm using : 

Javascript date picker for the date selection:

```
<script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('.date').datepicker({ dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy" });
    });
</script>

```

Code for format :

```
    String date = new DateTime(DateTime.Today.Year, DateTime.Today.Month, DateTime.Today.Day, 0, 0, 0).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss");

string[] formats = { "dd-MM-yyyy" };
DateTime resultDate = new DateTime();
if (DateTime.TryParseExact(Request["date"], formats, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out resultDate))
            {
                //if everything good you will have your date in resultDate variable
                date = resultDate.ToString("MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss");
            }

```
