In ASP I code use functions like time(), date(), and now() to get and 
display the current date/time.  Is there an equivalent in C# embedded in 
an aspx to get that information?  Is there a special namespace that I need 
to use to get the current date/time?

There's actually a much much better way to time your functions. ASP.NET
has that built in:

Edit your Web.config file and turn on tracing:

<configuration>
 <system.web>
  <trace enabled="true" requestLimit="10" ...>
   ...

Then, open up two browsers. In one browser you can just surf your your
web application. Let's say your web application is at
http://localhost/MyWebApplication. Then, in the other browser, just go
to http://localhost/MyWebApplication/trace.axd

and you will see a list of the last ten requests. Then, you can click on
"View Details" on your request and you have a complete dump of all kind
information: trace, session state, application state, cookies, server
variables and so on.

Now, in your ASP codebehind code do the following:

Trace.Write("MyMethod is starting here...");
MyMethod(...);
Trace.Write("MyMethod ends here...");

and then you will the exact time it takes to execute your MyMethod. It's
really impressive what Microsoft have done there.

Have fun,
Minh.

Use the DateTime object example DateTime.Now

jmlatham,

	Sorry for my previous long post, but apparently I read your
question wrong. :) You just wanted to know a function to get the time,
and for some strange reasons, I've read that you wanted to time your
function. So, yeah, please ignore my previous long post. :)

Minh.

 I'm glad you misunderstood his post, what you wrote, may help me debug something.  Or determine if the dang server is misbehaving!
