I seem to remember that there is a method
for establishing time elapsed since midnight,
which is it?

Thank you.
Zach.
 
Hi Zach,

Um, time elapsed since midnight would be the time in hours, minutes,
seconds on a 24 hour system.
I believe the DateTime object uses a 24 hour clock so this code should be
valid on any system.

DateTime d = DateTime.Now;
MessageBox.Show(d.Hour + " " + d.Minute + " " + d.Second);

TimeSpan sinceMidnight = DateTime.Now - DateTime.Today;
double secs = sinceMidnight.TotalSeconds;
