How to change or edit system time and restore it again in the current time by coding in VB?

In VB (6.0 or earlier) the Date and Time statements allow you to change the system date/time. Here's an example using date.








Dim dOldDate As Date





'Store the date


dOldDate = Date





'Set the date backward to 2004


Date = CDate(';1/1/2004';)





'Set it back to what it was


Date = dOldDateHow to change or edit system time and restore it again in the current time by coding in VB?
just right click then hit adjust date/timeHow to change or edit system time and restore it again in the current time by coding in VB?
use the now function to save the date and use the date statment to reset it.





e.g.





Sub changeDate(newDate As Date)





Dim currentDate As Date





' save the current date


currentDate = Now()


' set the system date


Date = newDate


' restore the system date


Date = currentDate





End Sub
