A string containing any valid time format

Description

The TimeValue function converts stringDate to the Date data type, setting any date component to January 1, 1 AD. The interpretation of the time components in the expression is based on the locale setting of the local computer.

Usage at a Glance

If stringTime is invalid or Nothing, a runtime error is generated.

Version Differences

In VB 6, TimeValue returns the time only. Under .NET, the function also returns the base date of January 1, 1 AD.
