      A FILETIME is easier to serialize than a SYSTEMTIME struct. FILETIMEs are a lot easier to compare too.

        First your user name is very sweet. The basic use of SystemTimeToFileTime function is to just convert the current system time to the file time i.e File time is the time related to some specific file i.e the creation time, the Last Access time etc.. you can get more help of the file timing in MSDN in follwoing articles: 1. GetFileTime 2. FILETIME 3. SYSTEMTIME if you still have any doubt about this pls feel free to ask Pankaj Sachdeva
