How are you validating / testing the time stamp?

I don't see any way to get 100 percent accuracy but it would be within 
miliseconds with the following:
Note, if the time stamp happens one milisecond before the click you will see 
what appears to be a one second difference unless you analyze the 
miliseconds as follows:

?time()  // its only one step.
form.yourQuery.rowset.field["timestamped"].value = time(0)
form.yourQuery.rowset.save()

Greg,


I am very new to Dbase. is there a way you could give me step by step
instructions on how to set up time stamp in a form. or show me in one of the
manuals the set by set procedure. i'm still very new to understanding on the
codes/commands- so could you give it to me with out all the code/commands.
thanks!

i hope this made sense?

Copy the code posted by Jean-Pierre Martel to a file named
"VanderDoes2.wfm" 
and run it.

Then study the code in function PUSHBUTTON1_onClick.

function PUSHBUTTON1_onClick
      Form.rowset.beginAppend()
      Form.rowset.fields["timestamp1"].value = dateTime()
      Form.rowset.next(0)
      return
