You can try this int year = 2019; //will come from dropdown int month = 12; //will come from dropdown int dates = DateTime.Now.Day; //Current Date in number DateTime value = new DateTime(year, month, dates); Here is the practial implementation. public static void Main( string [] args) { int year = 2019; //will come from dropdown int month = 12; //will come from dropdown int dates = DateTime.Now.Day; //Current Date in number //Your code for generating date is here. Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString( new DateTime(year, month, dates))); }

Hi, This is not a proper way to handle the custom date in dropdown list because how you are going to handle leap year and day ( 31 is in some month ) ? By mistake if some people have select month as feb and day as 30 or 31 in that case it will create a huge issue in the development. So better to add the validation for leap year,feb and some of the month it contain 31 day.
