Summary

Date and time.

Description

The Date property must be set to a string containing the date and time. The format of the string must be compliant with the RFC 850 specification or RFC 822 specification. This property can be accessed at any time. This property is used to build the "Date" field in the header.

By default, the MIME ActiveX control will use the current date and time to build the "Date" field. However, an application can change this by setting the Date property to a different date and time. For example: "Fri, Apr 5 1996 10:05:06" is a valid date string. If the Date property is an empty string then the default date and time will be used. This property must be set before creating a message by calling the CreateMessage method (or the deprecated Create or CreateX method, or setting the Action property to the deprecated ACTION_CREATE value.

Please refer to RFC 850 - "Standard For Interchange of USENET Messages" or to RFC 822 - "Standard For The Format Of ARPA Internet Text Messages" for more information on the format of the date string.

This property can be set at design time or changed at run time. There is no default value for this property.

Example

Mime.Date = Format$(Now, "ddd, d mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss")

"The night before I went on summer holiday we had to make some 'last minute' configuration changes to approx. 300 routers, a tedious job to do manually with telnet. We went along with MS Excel containing a list of IP-adresses to the routers, and the VIT telnet-component. One hour later the VBA-application (small is beautiful) was working, and after another hour all of our routers were updated with the new configuration. I just say a big "Thanks" to you all for a good sleep that night."
