Hi Helmut,
I've never used the TimSetSeconds function, but you might try something
like this:
TimSecondsToDateTime( TimGetSeconds(), &dtPalm))
This will put the current time into your DateTimeType structure. Maybe
looking at this structure will tell you what going wrong.
Also, this function sends a sysNotifyTimeChangeEvent if the Notification
Manager feature is present. Maybe another app isn't handling this.
HTH,
Ed

Hi Dave,
I have just tried what you suggested, but if I use "dtPalm.year = 97", the
resulting seconds-value can't be converted backwards to the original value
(is wrong) and the same error appears (Fatal alert).
Any other ideas, please?
Helmut
