How do I change the time and date settings programatically on a windows CE device (tpc 2106)

Hi,
I want to change the time and date settings programatically on a TPC-2106. Time setting is important for my application. Since I don't want users to play with other TPC settings, I would like to allow users to be able to adjust time settings inside the Labview application.
 
Anyone knows how to do it?
 
Thanks

Hi AI Capote,

LabVIEW does not have a built in VI to do this but you can call into the windows kernal and set the date and time.  There is a Knowledgebase linked here that will show you how to do this.  Executing this on a touchpanel will be tricky and may not be possible.  You will have to call into the touchpanels kernal using the call library function node.  Using the call library function node on the PDA/Touchpanel it is very similar to LabVIEW but you can reference this Knowledgebase for specific details on the differences.  Hope this helps.  Thanks.
