SNIP ..
>>I need an API call to check the System Date and Time on another computer over a network. I have a client with an Extremely Unstable NT network. They want to pull Date and Time from one specific computer (has UPS) to place a date/time stamp all on new/edited records. We can run the net program, but it is DOS based and I feel there had to be an API call which does the same thing.

George,
I'm insterested if I can make the API on computer 1 and get the Time/Date from computer 2. They are interested in the Current Time/Date.

Thanx.

You know, it works on my computer. I don't know what your problem is.
