DateTime.AddHours method doesn't add anything

[radiolandog]

I am getting a DateTime value from a Calendar Control. It returns the date
at midnight. I want to add some hours to the value before I display it in a
text box.

C# back end to a web form - here's the code
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
private DateTime startTime;

protected void Calendar1_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
startTime = Calandar1.SelectedDate;
startTime.AddHours(8.5);
startDateTextBox.Text = startTime.ToString();

You are working in Dotnet. This group covers classic asp. Dotnet is
totally different and has its own group:
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------

If I debug and step through the code, startTime gets set to the selected
data at 12:00:00 AM. The AddHours method does not change its value, it stays
at 12:00:00 AM.

microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet

Would be a better group to ask, this group is for Classic ASP.

However try:-

startTime = startTime.AddHours(8.5);
