Convert DateTine to a Number?

[redfish34]

Is there such a conversion? I would like to use DateTime as part of a unique identifier. I could create a number by appending year + month + day + hour + minute + second + ticks, but i am hoping i could access the number representation of DateTime like i could in VB6.

Use the Ticks property. --- b { font-weight: normal; }

The ToBinary() method will return the DateTime's numeric value. /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Music | Articles | Freeware | Trips ravib(at)ravib(dot)com

Both advice is good. Thanks for the "kick" in the right direction!
