DateTimeOffset::Ticks Property
Gets the number of ticks that represents the date and time of the current DateTimeOffset object in clock time.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The Ticks property is not affected by the value of the Offset property.
The value of the Ticks property represents the number of 100-nanosecond intervals that have elapsed since 12:00:00 midnight on January 1, 0001 (the value of MinValue). It does not include ticks that would be added by leap seconds. A nanosecond is one billionth of a second; there are ten million ticks in a second. The value of the Ticks property ranges from DateTimeOffset.MinValue.Ticks to DateTimeOffset.MaxValue.Ticks.
You can assign the number of ticks to a DateTimeOffset object by using the DateTimeOffset(Int64, TimeSpan) constructor overload.
The following example initializes a DateTimeOffset object by approximating the number of ticks in the date July 1, 2008 1:23:07. It then displays the date and the number of ticks represented by that date to the console.
