Time in Milliseconds

[jmarler]

Does anyone know of a way to format the Date command or the Now command so that it will return milliseconds along with the actual HH:MM:SS data? - Jeff Marler B-)

If you put it into a double then the fractional part is the "part" of the day. There are 86400000 (24*60*60*1000) milliseconds in a day.

Thanks John . . . actually, someone at work gave me what I need. It's simply Format$(Now, "hh:mm:ss:ms&quot. - Jeff Marler B-)

Hi Jeff,

I was looking for the same thing.
The other threads explain why milliseconds are not available.
I was intrigued by your solution and tried it out.

It looked good. A three digit return.
Then I realised the 'ms' simply returns the month and the second.

I guess you reve realised this by now.

Ciao,

kyran.

Quite so

jmarler -
Something you should be aware of is that the PC clock isn't accurate to milliseconds. So even if you used the GetTickCount Win32 api function, it's not that accurate.
