While listening to Steve Batson Pete heard:Date Routines
G'day Steve
 SB> I am trying to write a program to manage my user base on my BBS.
 SB> The BBS software is called SpitFire and the Subscription date is

 SB> delphi date routines with no success. Can someone give a small
 SB> code example of how to decode a date in this format?
You might find it's stored in unix date "seconds elapsed since
01/01/1970 (i think) " format.
     Pete.
