What is the correct way to parse DateTime on a server side onAfterGet event?

Hi everyone.

I'm currently trying to evaluate the current date and a date property however, when I try do parse the string provided by getProperty, it gives me the error:

String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.

I can confirm the property is of the Type: Date and Pattern: Short Date.

My relevant code:

for (int i = 0; i < this.getItemCount(); i++)
{
    Item thisItem = this.getItemByIndex(i);
    
    string dateStr1 = thisItem.getProperty("_calibrated_next","");
    DateTime date1 = DateTime.Parse(dateStr1);
}

The only thing that I can think of that may cause this error is the date format conversion when localized from neutral UTC, but I couldn't find much in the Aras documentation related to this.

Thanks
