Dim purchasedate, purchasetime As String
purchasedate = Date.Today
'Stores current time in the variable purchasetime
purchasetime = System.DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss")
[code]....
I am trying to add 60 seconds to the current time (purchase time) but would my method of System.DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss") + 60 add 60 seconds to the current time ?
I tried Console.WriteLine(Cstr(DateTime.Now)) and it shows the time down to the seconds, ie, "5/26/2009 5:17:02 PM" But, is there an option to show the current time more detailed than seconds, ie, "5/26/2009 5:17:02.xxx PM"
View 2 RepliesI was wondering if it's possible to add seconds to a clock in vb.net. I mean lt's say I have a label and I assign it to DateTime.Now(), how would I show/display the time with the seconds "ticking"?
View 1 RepliesSo I currently have the following:
2 timers
2 labels
1st label is "Clock" this pulls the time from the users current time zone/local time
2nd label is "UTCClock" Which would be UTC time
Now I have this for the first label: clock.Text = Format(TimeOfDay, "hh:mm:ss tt")
Which would give the users current time zone/local time. As for the UTC.. how would I add in for the UTC time from where the user is located at? I did some searches.. but couldnt find what I was looking for.. IM pretty sure its not as easy as getting the users current time zone/local time.. So im assuming that Theres a "bit more" code into getting UTC time..

View 1 RepliesI'm writing a report scheduler that is somewhat of a clone to the backupexec scheduler and the layout can be seen in post #10 here: [URL]..It works great and saves/edits/deletes records just fine, but now i need to compare those records one at a time in a windows service that i'm writing in order to trigger automated report creation and emailing - i already have the report and i already have the code for the emailing, i'm just looking for the most efficient way to loop through the table (that i've pulled in to a dataset) and compare its records with the current date and time - if true, the event fires.
[Code]...
1stSun, 2ndSun etc are bit fields, time is a datetime, and the remainder are varchar. My service checks the database every thirty seconds.The english version of what i'm trying to do is "Connect to the database, grab the entire table (it will always only have 5-6 entries max, so i felt 30 second sweeps was okay), and If today is the 1st Sunday of the month, and it is currently 11:00:00 a.m. (could be any day or time, this is just an example) - loop through the dataset to identify if any records match the time field or greater - if they do, fire the report
I have a masked textbox (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss) and a textbox (hh:mm:ss). I want to calculate the difference of them both and put the result in an other masked textbox (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss).e.g.13/11/1979 10:00:00 - 15:00:00 = 12/11/1979 19:00:00..I already tried Date.FromOADate(CDbl(dec_time) , where dec_time stands for the difference between first and second part of the equation.

View 1 RepliesBasically, my app has the main form and a windows form "splash". Let me explain, this "Splash" is a WINDOWS FORM, not a splash form; its just named splash because I want to use it for that reason.In my project settings, my main form is my startup, and the splash form is my splash. This splash form has been coded on a timer for 10 seconds, but when I set the splash form as the splash setting, the form shows up for 1 second and goes to the main form.What I need is to edit the splash setting time from 1 second to x# seconds (preferebly 10)

View 3 RepliesI have a form with the DateTimePicker control on it. When I select a date it gives a value like "date time" (Eg.: 5/12/2010 12:20:35 PM). But here the time returned is current time. What I need is for the date chosen from the picker automatically set the time to 00:00:00 instead of the time when the date was picked.

View 1 RepliesSearching about kernel32.dll and battery functions in it, I came across some interesting

I am writing a program and have run into an issue. The program requires a conversion of time (e.g. hours,minutes,seconds) to a hexadecimal value of no more than 4 bytes (e.g. FFFF). I have no idea how this is done. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or give a quick explanation. Sample code would be great as well.

View 2 RepliesI have an application where event driven events are already detected. Each time an even is detected I increment a counter.I would like to add the following functionality:
1.) I would like to create a time stamp each time an event is detected and store them in some kind of data structure.
2.) I would like to count how many events are being stored (or in essence count how many events have occurred in the past 10 seconds, not once but continuously).
3.) I would then like to discard of any events older than 10 seconds note events are interrupt driven and can occur more frequently than once a second, but updating my count of how many events have occurred in the past 10 seconds can be done as infrequently as say once a second.
