    Date will get you date
    Time ... well.. gets the time
    and Now gets it all!

    Example: Label1.caption = Date
    or Label1.caption = Time
    JPnyc rocks!! (Just ask him!)

    If you want the complete date and time you can call "Now" - if you just want the date you can call "Date" and for the time call "Time". You can also format them in multiple ways. This site has pretty good coverage of all the date functions.

    Hi

    Code:
    text1.text = Format(Now, "dddddd")
    would load the current date into the text box text1.
