Hi Alex,

The Win32 has several functions that can help. These would be: SystemTimeToFileTime, LocalFileTimeToFileTime, and FileTimeToSystemTime. The first function converts a SYSTEMTIME structure to a FILETIME structre. The second, coverts a the local file time to the corresponding UTC filetime. The last converts a FILETIME structure back to a SYSTEMTIME sturcture. Something like Cristof Lange's Structure from the download section might be of help. I've used these functions without it. They're not terribly complex.
