Is there any Visula Basic function that gives the time on a remote computer if I supply name of the computer or IP address?
 
You could try using the 'NET TIME' command in a dos window i.e. Shell to it, pipe the results to a text file then read the file.

Call Shell("NET TIME \\WorkstationID > C:\RMT_TIME.TXT" )
Open "C:\RMT_TIME.TXT" for input as #1
etc...
