<QUOTE>
I am having trouble figuring out how to call the windows settime function/dll. From what I can tell from the windows SDK it is done by calling shell32.dll with something called object.SetTime. Does anyone have a sample of how to do this. Regardless of all of the above all I really want to do is call the windows set time function and let the user set the time...thanks

<QUOTE>Steve,



Don't know the answer, but if you're really desperate you can use a DOS window with a TIME command:



x=Utility( "RUNWIN", "time" )



Adds a nice Stone Age touch to your app...

<QUOTE>Steve,



I'm delighted you're happy with using [b]time[/b]. But be warned. It might not last forever. I quote:



[i]But thought's the slave of life, and life's time's fool,

And [b]time[/b] that takes survey of all the world

Must have a stop.[/i]



Btw - Shakespeare never mentioned SetTime.
