    Hi,

    The following (DateTimeParse) is not supported in CRM Online:

    DateTime.Parse(First(Fields!quote_effectivefrom.Value, "DataSet1"), System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US"))

    How can I convert it to a supported format in CRM Online?

    Try to use expression that Tony suggested:

    =Format(CDate(First(Fields!quote_effectivefrom.Value, "DataSet1")), "MM/dd/yyyy")

    Hi,

    The issue was that a user with e.g. Chinese culture got an error when displaying the report. Se we decided to convert the date to en-US. This is what I was looking for:

    =CDate(First(Fields!quote_effectivefrom.Value, "DataSet1")).ToString("MMMM d, yyyy", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US"))

    Thank you for responses.
