CTime

[nicktherod]

I have a date stored in a database and i want to compare that date with the systems date and then perform calculations if necessary. i.e. Is date todays date? No then do this. Kind of thing.

The date from the DB is of type CTIME in the recordset. I've tried a couple of things but nothing works and i am getting frustrated with the thing.

Please help.

Thanks

I'm not familiar with that type. What DB are you working with?

Access ODBC

nick,

Ultimately you want to get the value into a COleDateTime MFC object. How to accomplish that depends on the API interface you are using to communicate with the Access file.

> Access ODBC
> CTIME

So your field type in the Access table is 'Date/Time'?

You are using the ODBC API to communicate with the database? If so please post the API function used to return the data from the 'Date/Time' field.
