I want to save a time to a data an array of items, and save it to a database. There is a time field in the db, and a date data type, but suppose I open the data base and want to get the times out of it, what kind of place do I put
them?

I would like to do :
      Employee.punchinTime <--- database record time field

PS please look at my DB 2006 question. Thats holding me up big time. I don't
mind paying for a web article even if it will solve this problem. I am
checking all the docs but nothing helps. Is there any explanatory release for RB2006
other than that huge long list of bug fixes?

Personally I would do a full Date-Time for every employee in and out. What is really the most important is not the time punch but the difference between the in and out. This is most easily calculated by using the Date.TotalSeconds property:

    Dim secondsAtWork As Double
    Dim employeeTimeIn As Date
    Dim employeeTimeOut As Date

// code here to assign employeeTimeIn and employeeTimeOut from database

secondsAtWork = employeeTimeOut.TotalSeconds - employeeTimeIn.TotalSeconds
