Forgive the Little joke, this is serious VFP.
Has anyone used Seconds() {VFP5.0} to replace
_bios_timeofday(1, &Clicks) in a C to VFP port.
What did you do with the transit over midnight, in the Seconds() case.
_bios returns a 1 if a cross has occurred since last read and a 0
otherwise, as well as stuffing the value in to the location pointed to
by &Clicks.

These calcs work better with datetime()

Thank you for your response Lew.
I believe I need the Precision of Ticks (1/18.21 of Seconds), as the
code involved comes from MS C 5.1, and I am trying to emulate its action
entirely in VFP 5.0. Seconds() which resets to zero every midnight, is
claimed to have a resolution of 1 millisecond, except in NT where the
claimed resolution is 10ms. The question of the kluging of OOP's, and
the separation by processes have still to be faced. Seconds() seems to
return a number 0 to 86400, but no separate flag like _bios_timeof
day() to indicate a rollover at midnight. I fear if retval = 0 or the
like might not be failsafe, etc.
