Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Property Value
Type: System::DateTimeOffsetA DateTimeOffset object whose date and time is the current local time and whose offset is the local time zone's offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
The precision of the current local time's millisecond component depends on the resolution of the system clock. On Windows NT 3.5 and later, and Windows Vista operating systems, the clock's resolution is approximately 10-15 milliseconds.
The following example uses the Now property to retrieve the current date and time and displays it by using each of the standard date and time format strings supported by the DateTimeOffset type.
The following example uses the Now and Millisecond properties to determine the resolution of the system clock. It displays the time only when the value of its millisecond component has changed.
