>Your point is valid and welcome. But at least in our case here, maybe it's easier and more logical if we could just synchronize the workstation's datetime with the server's or something to that effect.
OK. You can still get the date/time from the server with this method. To set the date and time on the local machine, in the remote past I would have used the DOS commands DATE and TIME, but nowadays, probably some API function (or WSH) would be more appropriate. I don't know what that function would be; perhaps you can find something at
