>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.

Thank you George.
But i do not understand how these conversions fuctions can help me to
keep right timestamp in table. As i understand these functions only convert
one type of date and time to another. Could you elobarate this question.
Thank you. Alex
