Examples

The following example generates a channel with time values. The command CreateTime generates a start time for the time channel with 10 time values and a step width of 1 week.

Dim Range, dStartTime, oStartTime, vStartTime
Range = "week"
Set oStartTime = CreateTime(1999,11,20,0,0,0)
dStartTime = ConvertTimeType (oStartTime,eConvertDIAdemDateTime )
Call ChnGenTime ("[]/GenTimeChn_dTime", Range, dStartTime, 0, 1, "StartStepNo", 10)

Range = "week" 
oStartTime = dd.CreateTime(1999,11,20,0,0,0) 
dStartTime = dd.ConvertTimeType (oStartTime,dd.eConvertDIAdemDateTime ) 
dd.ChnGenTime ("[]/GenTimeChn_dTime", Range, dStartTime, 0, 1, "StartStepNo", 10) 

The following example creates the custom property Time with a time value for the data record:

Call Data.Root.Properties.Add("Time", CreateTime(2004,6,17,10,0,0,0,0,0))

dd.Data.Root.Properties.Add("Time", dd.CreateTime(2004,6,17,10,0,0,0,0,0))
