Calendar.AddMilliseconds Method

.NET Framework 1.1

Returns a DateTime that is the specified number of milliseconds away from the specified DateTime.

[Visual Basic]
Public Overridable Function AddMilliseconds( _
   ByVal time As DateTime, _
   ByVal milliseconds As Double _
) As DateTime
[C#]
public virtual DateTime AddMilliseconds(
 DateTime time,
 double milliseconds
);
[C++]
public: virtual DateTime AddMilliseconds(
 DateTime time,
 double milliseconds
);
[JScript]
public function AddMilliseconds(
   time : DateTime,
 milliseconds : double
) : DateTime;

Parameters

time: The DateTime to which to add milliseconds.
milliseconds: The number of milliseconds to add.

Return Value

The DateTime that results from adding the specified number of milliseconds to the specified DateTime.

Exceptions

Exception Type	Condition
ArgumentException	The resulting DateTime is outside the supported range.

Remarks

The milliseconds value is rounded to the nearest integer before it is added to the specified DateTime. If milliseconds is negative, the resulting DateTime is earlier than the specified DateTime.

The day part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting time is outside the day of the specified DateTime. The month part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting day is outside the month of the specified DateTime. The year part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting month is outside the year of the specified DateTime. The era part of the resulting DateTime is affected if the resulting year is outside the era of the specified DateTime.
