Function name : GetSystemTimeAsFileTime

Group: Time - Library: kernel32

The GetSystemTimeAsFileTime function retrieves the current system date and time. The information is in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) format.

Code examples:

Setting the date and time that a file was created

Declaration:

void GetSystemTimeAsFileTime(
  LPFILETIME lpSystemTimeAsFileTime
);

FoxPro declaration:

DECLARE GetSystemTimeAsFileTime IN kernel32;
	STRING @lpSystemTimeAsFileTime

Parameters:

lpSystemTimeAsFileTime [out] Pointer to a FILETIME structure to receive the current system date and time in UTC format.

Return value:

This function does not return a value.

Comments:

This function is useful when you need to set a file time using current system time. Otherwise you would use a succession of GetSystemTime and SystemTimeToFileTime functions.
