Howdy folks,

What would be the best way to retrieve time changes  when handling a DTN_DATETIMECHANGE notification from the DTP control?

1. Check for DTN_DATETIMECHANGE then retrieve the time from NMDATETIMECHANGE structure
2. Check for DTN_DATETIMECHANGE then SendMessage with DTM_GETSYSTEMTIME
3. Any other way?

Mucho gracias!

You have it , Why search to get one another ?

typedef struct tagNMDATETIMECHANGE {
    NMHDR nmhdr;
    DWORD dwFlags;
    SYSTEMTIME st;
} NMDATETIMECHANGE, *LPNMDATETIMECHANGE;

Hi TouteEnMasm

I'm trying to find out which method people generally use

The first one - you're already GIVEN the time, there's no need to then go and ask for it again.


Man: Excuse me miss, would you know the correct time?
Woman: Yes, it's 1:32pm
Man: So what time is?
Woman: ...1:32pm...?

at least she gives you the time of day - lol
she would prolly tell me "time for you to ask someone esle"

1. Check for DTN_DATETIMECHANGE then retrieve the time from NMDATETIMECHANGE structure
2. Check for DTN_DATETIMECHANGE then SendMessage with DTM_GETSYSTEMTIME
3. Any other way?

i don't think d0d0 was intending to perform theses as steps in a sequence
rather, he was listing the different possible ways of achieving the goal
