Use the Now function S. van Els

Roger32,

Consider, if you will:

  inputBox( 'FYI', 'At the tone:',
            dateTimetoStr( Sysutils.date + sysutils.time ) );

The date() and time() functions in SysUtils provides this. Note that it's generally best to precede calls to those functions with the unit qualifier (SysUtils) as there are other date() and time() functions in the RTL.

Hope this helps...

Use a DateTimePicker from the Win32 Tab. Put the kind property to dtkTime S. van Els
