Creating Constants at CompileTime

[John G Duffy]

I am trying to create a Constant at compile time so I can display the compile date at run time. I have tried with no success to use some of the few available compile time directives. Any one know if this is possible and HOW using VB 6.x?

Example. User clicks the Help ABOUT button and the Compile date and time shows.

I believe this is what you want:

Thanks,
That's not quite what I am looking for. I need to imbed the compile date and time within the compiled program so I can display it at run time

Are you saying that you don't want to use the actual file date? I'm not sure I understand, unless you expect that the date might be changed after it is compiled, and you want to know the true date?
