The below will do the current time, the current date works pretty much the
same... Get the date format from prefs and use DateToAscii to make a string
out of it.

DateTimeType dt;
TimeFormatType timeFormat;
Char strTime[timeStringLength];

//get the time in seconds from 1904 and make a DateTimeType
TimSecondsToDateTime(TimGetSeconds(), &dt);
                        
//get the system time prefs to find out what format to display the current
time in
timeFormat = (TimeFormatType) PrefGetPreference(prefTimeFormat);

//get a string for the current time of day (hours and minutes)
TimeToAscii(dt.hour, dt.minute, timeFormat, strTime);           
                        
//draw it to the screen
WinDrawChars(strTime, StrLen(strTime), 30, 30); 

>>hi

form
