Need ticks to time help

[gw_1966]

Hi.

I have a program which writes the tick count to a registry key. Lets take 1178521194 as the tick count example. I would like to convert this to the actual time and date.

For example this number was created today 7th May 2007 at approx 4:59PM.

Basically I want to have a message box that states "This program last ran at 4:59PM 07/05/2007"

I have looked through the doco and some example scripts but I cant seem to grab the exact time and day from this number.

Any help would be great.

Hi,

Have you try the function _DateAdd() ?

A litle modification of example from help file:

#include <Date.au3>

$Secs = 1178521194

$sNewDate = _DateAdd('s', -$Secs, _NowCalc())
MsgBox(64, "", "Today minus <" & $Secs & "> seconds: " & $sNewDate)

Edit: Litle change in code, now returned full date including time.
