System Time to "Variant Time" - method in Active-X control expects Double...


I have an active-X control (ATl/C++) that expects a date as Variant Time (a
double). How can I convert a date in VB.NET into such a double?

Any help would be much appreciated.

thanks.

Call the date's ToOADate function returning the _O_le _A_utomation Date as a
double value.

Hi, I am updating system time with IRIG time source which sends irregular pulses as shown below 11000011111100111111111111111111....(1-IRIG present and 0-IRIG not present) I need to update system time when I find a steady pulse or a series of 1's say for a span of 10-15 seconds. Is there a way to implement this in VB6? Thanks in advance. Valiz.

I have a string variable that holds the equivalent of a DateTime value. I pulled this datetime from the database and I want to strip off the time portion before displaying to the user. I am using C# eg. - String variable "strMyDate" holds the value "1/1/2005 12:00:00 AM" from the database. - I do not care about the time portion, I only want "1/1/2005" for display.

I'm using an Access MDB as a front end to a SQL 7 database. When I place the system time in a field in Access, it used the user's clock. I'd like to use the SQL Server system time, so that the times will be synchronized. I suppose I can just do a pass-through query with "select getdate()." But I was wondering if there was some built-in method, either in Access or SQL Server. I'm concerned about the overhead of running a pass-through query...
