Is it possible to iintegrate DateTime compatibility methods like in VB.Net.
There is the .ToOADate()- and the .FromOADate()-Method to convert from Ticks to a Double formated Date and the reversal.
I believe that's already( as it always was) possile using DATEParse, wich converts adate to the tick, and DATE wich converts o a date a numbe of ticks, formated by the DATEFORMAT....
It might seem surprising but probably not in an optimised compiled app, especially for FromOADate() which is one multiply and one add. There is the overhead of a library call and a further call in the library to the .NET functions and the variables need the same processing whether they are passed to a library or merely prepared for B4ppc computation.
