An OLE Automation date is implemented as a floating-point number whose value is the number of days from midnight, 30 December 1899. For example, midnight, 31 December 1899 is represented by 1.0; 6 A.M., 1 January 1900 is represented by 2.25; midnight, 29 December 1899 is represented by -1.0; and 6 A.M., 29 December 1899 is represented by -1.25.
The base OLE Automation Date is midnight, 30 December 1899. The maximum OLE Automation Date is the same as MaxValue, the last moment of 31 December 9999.
