Question and Answer Database FAQ94C.txt How to manipulate a TDateTime object Category :VCL Platform :All Product :C++Builder 1.x Question: How do I do something as simple as adding 1 minute to a TDateTime Object? Answer: Use the overloaded operators that come with the TDateTime type as so: MyTDTime += (1.0/1440.0); this adds one(1) minute to the current time which is really a double. The fractional part of the TDateTime double is the time of day and as there are 1440 minutes in a day, the above will add one. Also is is important to note that TDateTime is NOT a VCL object so can (and I'd say should) be allocated non-dynamically, ie: TDateTime MyTDTime; enjoy! 7/2/98 10:32:32 AM
