How do I add leading zeroes to String.Format parameters?

Question

I have the following code:

string textTransDate = String.Format("{0}-{1}-{2} {3}:{4}", DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, DateTime.Now.Day, DateTime.Now.Hour, DateTime.Now.Minute);

I want to add leading zeroes to the month and day parameters if they are less than 10, how would I accomplish this?

Answer 1

string textTransDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm");
