Checking system time while in a loop

[Cuervo]

Is there a function to check system time on a computer and a way to loopit in a Do ... Until ?

IE I want the macro to check current time and not execute further until a time of day has been reach.

I see

$begin = TimerInit()

sleep(3000)

$dif = TimerDiff($begin)

MsgBox(0,"Time Difference",$dif)

But the difference in time that I want is current system time on this computer.

I did a search for time and system time but the search function keeps timing out.

Hi there,

I'm not sure if i understand your issue, nevertheless i'm going to give what i think is a hit:

$time = @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC
MsgBox(0,"Current System Time",$time)

Cheers

november is right, look at the UDF DateManagement (Date.au3) in the helpfile, there is all you need

Maybe something like:

$Hour = 12
$Min = 46
;Will trigger at 12:46
Do
    ;Nothing
Until @Hour = $Hour AND @Min = $Min
;code to be executed after the desired time
