Android Question Statemanager save as a Long type

[trueboss323]

Hello, I have Statemanager for saving settings and I use this code

StateManager.SetSetting("Starttime", DateTime.Date(DateTime.Now)&" " & DateTime.Time(DateTime.Now))

But the problem I think it saves the value as a string, so how can I save it as a Long value?

Sure. You ARE giving a STRING...

StateManager.SetSetting("Starttime", DateTime.Now)

So how can I convert and save it as a Long type?

dim dt as Long = Datetime.now
StateManager.SetSetting("Starttime", dt)
