Why is the EA clock at least 12 minutes fast?

Don't know? But I have it pegged to about 7.5 minutes. I've looked around in the backroom and can't seem to find any settings that would affect it.

Because eunuchs are always ahead of their time.

And here we thought Moi was just slow

I suspect that the computer that the EA is run on has its clock set wrong. On my computer, I use a program called StatBar. One of the things it does is reset my computer's clock every 30 minutes (this is adjustable) using one of the internet time servers (ntp.xs4all.nl). I think that there are many different time setting programs. Maybe the person in charge of the EA computer can install one of those programs when he or she has time.

Our program is run on a large server somewhere in the world with a fairly large company - unless mistaken, I think we are located in the Netherlands, although they have locations around the world. I am sure they check their time. We have had problems of various natures with VB before. A note of inquiry to them should likely be of more help.

Well, um, errr, aaah, yea. I forgot to install the software that checks the clock for accuracy. All fixed up and done.Sorry. (ntpdate)

I never noticed the clock was different.

It allows us to see a future now.

Immutable and unchanging,

unless someone edits I guess.

Hmmmmm, T., can we get something like this for a plain old desktop?
