Hi!

Try:

? {01/01/1900 00:00:00} + 37248.6290509259 * 3600 * 24

The integer part of the number you see is a number of days passed since 01/01/1900. The fractional part is a number that represents a part of the day to represent time. Adding the number to any datetime value in VFP is adding of a second to it. So we need to multiply your value to number of seconds in the day and just add it to the "zero" datetime value, as in the sample above.

HTH.

>What i mean is that in certain application like vb or delphi the datetime is stored as 37248.6290509259 where 37248 represents the date and the part after the decimal point the time. Could you please tell me how I can convert it back to datetime value
