My VBA help files tell me that VBA also has time function, which returns the
current system time.   There are three of them:

    Date     returns the current date (in the default format of your system)
    Time    returns the current time (in the default format of your system)
    Now    returns the current date and time (in the default format of your
system)

The value can be returned in a variable.
