Unable to display date from SQL Date field without the time automatically added
<p>C#; .Net 3.5</p>

<p>MessageBox.Show(String.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", reader2["SentDate"].ToString()));</p>

<p>returns:</p>

<p>7-12-2012 12:00:00 AM</p>

<p>SentDate is a SQL Date field (not datetime), and it only contains "2012-07-12" in the field.</p>

<p><br><br>
What am I doing wrong?  I only want to have the MessageBox display "7-12-2012" without the "12:00:00 AM".</p>
