I've been looking around everywhere, and I cannot find anywhere that tells me how to generate a timestamp from a date (using VB6). I thought there might have been an inbuilt function which generates one, like in PHP. <br />
<br />
Anyway, this is pretty important so if anyone knows of a function, or could provide me with source code which generates a timestamp. Please add an answer to this question.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Knossos.
