Hello,

I have done some digging but have not found a way to add time to the display time on the computer. For example, I wish to add 3 hours to the current time but have not been able to accomplish this. I found the script which adjusts for greenwich offset but that did not work. This seems like a simply problem but I am at a loss. Any help would be appreciated.

cheers
Hawk

Using the above script, the time is changed from 8:26 AM to 25:26. I changed Now to Time, removed the RIGHT and it worked for me.

strNow = Time
x = DateAdd("h", 3, strNow)
newTime = x'right(x, 8)
WScript.Echo "Original Time = " & strNow & vbcr & "New Time = " & newTime

All you would need to do is use the TIME cmd to set it

i.e.
WshShell.Run "cmd /C Time " & NewTime,1,TRUE
