Defines the formatting options that customize how the DateTime.Parse(string) and DateTime.ParseExact(string, string, IFormatProvider) methods parse a string.

Remarks

Note:

See the string class for the list of white space characters.

Only the DateTimeStyles.NoCurrentDateDefault option affects the DateTime.Parse(string) method. DateTime.Parse(string) always ignores leading, inner, and trailing white spaces.
