Public Property Today As DateTime

Property Value

Returns or sets a Date value containing the current date according to your system.

Attributes

SupportedOSPlatformAttribute

Examples

This example uses the Today property to return the current system date.

Dim thisDate As Date
thisDate = Today

Remarks

The Date data type includes time components. When returning the system date, Today sets all of these to 0, so the returned value represents midnight (00:00:00). When setting the system date, Today ignores the time components.

To access the current system date as a String, use the DateString property.

To get or set the current system time, use the TimeOfDay property.
