Fredrik!



When I did the ADODB test, I used the DateTime class. But, I was unable 

to create two datetime variables and subtract them from eachother! The 

documentation stated, then when subtracting two datetimes (constructed 

with the 'now' method), the outcome was a TimeSpan type (perhaps this is 

because I wanted to work with the milliseconds too).



How come? Could you post your code, please?



I mean, in regular ASP you use:

dtmStart =3D Now()

'## CODE GOES HERE

dtmEnd =3D Now()

Response.Write(FormatDateTime(dtmEnd - dtmStart)



In ASP.NET its much more 'hardcore' to do simple timing stuff. I bet 

this is because I've always been used to the easy of use with variants.

hi,



I use Timer instead of Now.

For example:



Response.Write("Start: " & Timer().ToString)



You can also set Trace to true in ASP.NET.

I will send you my code..
