Returns or sets a Date value containing the current time of day according to your system.

Public Property TimeOfDay() As DateTime

Remarks

The Date data type includes date components. When returning the system time, TimeOfDay sets these all to 1, so the returned value represents the first day of the year 1. When setting the system time, TimeOfDay ignores the date components.

To access the current system time as a String, use the TimeString property.

To get or set the current system date, use the Today property.

Example

This example uses the TimeOfDay property to return the current system time.

Dim MyTime As Date
MyTime = TimeOfDay   ' Return current system time.
