Dear Antonio,

Now() function is giving a wrong date as under:

Current time: Wed Oct 18 18:19:14 2023

Please help.

Dear Ramesh,

Here it is working fine

Lets check it with Mr. Rao

[nageswaragunupudi]

Working perfectly for me too here:

This is my code:

Code: Select all  Expand view

   ? "NOW()=", Now(), "HB_DATETIME()=", ;
      HB_DateTime(), ;
     "Current time: " + FW_Transform( HB_DateTime(), "ddd mmm dd hh:mm:ss yyyy" )

Result:


Note:
If you are using xHarbour, use DateTime() instead of HB_DateTime()

Hi Nageswara Rao gaaru/Antonio,

I am getting the wrong internet date, when the system date is wrongly changed to
a date, other than actual date.

Thank you for your attention

The wrong date that you get is the same as the wrongly changed date ?

What Windows version are you using ?

Dear Antonio,

>> The wrong date that you get is the same as the wrongly changed date ?

Yes.

>> What Windows version are you using ?

Windows 7 Ultimate (Service Pack 1)
