PC CLOCK-MILISECONDS MISTERY!

Hello again.
I wish to get the PC clock from inside the LABVIEW,
but with the functions avaiable I only go to the seconds and I
want the miliseconds (ms) also. How do I do it?

Thanks in advance

Jony

I am not certain if you are simply trying to read the PC clock but the
standard Get Date/Time in seconds will returns a double precision
number (with the milliseconds part). If you want to control the clock
on a Win9X PC, you can use the GetSystemTime and SetSystemTime
functions that are inside the kernel32 dll that is
part of the
operating system - these include the milliseconds part. If you want
any help with these dll calls, please ask.
