Hi petegajria,

How do you convert it? I see one TDateTime constructor with arguments
hour, min, sec, msec. If you use that one and you feed it non-zero
msecs, do they still get cleared? I mean in the TDateTime object,
before you assign them to the field.

(This constructor leaves the date 0, so you'd have to add the date
number afterwards. Not very elegant I'm afraid.)
