Write code which puts those three strings together into one string in a set format, then use SQLite DateTime functions to produce that timestamp as a number. <https://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html> Perhaps use format 2013-10-07 04:23:19.120-04:00 By the way, if possible, store a datetime as number instead of a string. That way you can do searching and sorting. Only when needed turn it back into a string date again, bearing in mind which timezone the user will find most convenient.
