Date and Time

I need to be able to generate a number that is a 14 digit number in this format:

My number is the number of 10,000 of a second from January 1st, 1900 and then append 2 random numbers to the end.

Can someone help? I've never done anything like this. Thanks, Jeremy

look up datediff --- that'll get you started.

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    'You only want to randomize once in your project
    ' or your random #'s won't be random!
    Randomize
End Sub
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim lngNumSeconds As Long
    Dim dblTTSeconds As Double
    Dim intRandom As Integer
    Dim strMyNumber As String
    
    'get seconds for 01/01/1990 till now
    lngNumSeconds = DateDiff("s", "01/01/1990", Now)
    'convert that to 10,000 of seconds elapsed
    dblTTSeconds = CDbl(lngNumSeconds) * 10000
        
    'now build this number (string)
        
    'we are going to add two digits so show at least
    ' 12 digits, but only 12 digits!
    strMyNumber = Format(Left(dblTTSeconds, 12), "000000000000") & Format(Int((Rnd(1) * 99) + 1), "00")
        
    MsgBox strMyNumber
End Sub

something like that?

Thanks once again for your help. Later, Jeremy
