Anony,

A datetime's Ticks property contains the raw number that represents that
datetime's date and time.

anony,
What specifically do you mean by "its 13 digit numeric value"?

Especially consider that a DateTime has more then 13 "digits" of data...
(there are 21 "digits" of data...

You could possible use DateTime.ToStri ng to convert the elements of a
DateTime to a string in the format you desire.

Dim value As DateTime = DateTime.Now
Debug.WriteLine (value.ToString ("yyyyMMddHHmms sfffffff"), "now")

For details on custom datetime formats see:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...matstrings.asp

For information on formatting in .NET in general see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ttingtypes.asp

Hope this helps
