Thanks

Hadn't seen it fail before.

My application is a time & fees system so as you can imagine having the
correct time is quite important.
I had the users messing with the system date time so they could start late
and go home early before!

I'm sure they still have at least one win98 machine so will check it for
sync errors.

Cheers

Graham,
The problem with Net time /Set is that sometimes the call will return an
incorrect Date/Time - especially on Win98 systems (if you still have any).

I got really caught by this one some time ago, hence the need to write an
API call.

Hi chaps

I just use a net time /set command to sync the time in one of my bar code
apps.

Alan,
I'll email you off line as it’s a bit long to send in a post.

No another PC i.e. the server would be perfect. I don't even want to
sync it, just see if someone is playing silly buggers with the system date.
