I need to convert some datetime data currently stored in .Net DateTime
type to the older double style (for compatibility with a legacy
control). Is there an intrinsic function to do this or, if not, could
someone please enlighten me as to the algorithm that would be needed
to code the conversion explicitly.

TIA
