+<P>
+<B><TT>DwDatetime</TT></B> represents a <I>date-time</I> as described in
+RFC-822 and RFC-1123. The parse method for <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> parses
+the string representation to extract the year, month, day, hour, minute,
+second, and time zone. <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> provides member functions
+to set or get the individual components of the date-time.

+DwDateTime(const DwDateTime&amp; aDateTime) <BR>
+DwDateTime(const DwString&amp; aStr, DwMessageComponent* aParent=0)
+</B></FONT>
+<P>
+The first constructor is the default constructor, which assigns the current
+date and time as reported by the operating system.
+<P>
+The second constructor is the copy constructor. The parent of the new
+<B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> object is set to <B><TT>NULL</TT></B>.
+<P>
+The third constructor sets <B><TT>aStr</TT></B> as the
+<B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> object's string representation and sets
+<B><TT>aParent</TT></B> as its parent. The virtual member function
+<B><TT>Parse()</TT></B> should be called after this constructor to extract
+the date and time information from the string representation. Unless it is
+<B><TT>NULL</TT></B>, <B><TT>aParent</TT></B> should point to an object of
+a class derived from <B><TT>DwField</TT></B>.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> const DwDateTime&amp; <A NAME="op_eq">operator =</A>
+(const DwDateTime&amp; aDateTime) </B></FONT>
+<P>
+This is the assignment operator, which sets this
+<B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> object to the same value as
+<B><TT>aDateTime</TT></B>.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> virtual void <A NAME="Parse">Parse</A>() </B></FONT>
+<P>
+This virtual function, inherited from <B><TT>DwMessageComponent</TT></B>,
+executes the parse method for <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> objects. The parse
+method creates or updates the broken-down representation from the string
+representation. For <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> objects, the parse method
+parses the string representation to extract the year, month, day, hour, minute,
+second, and time zone.
+<P>
+This function clears the is-modified flag.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> virtual void <A NAME="Assemble">Assemble</A>()
+</B></FONT>
+<P>
+This virtual function, inherited from <B><TT>DwMessageComponent</TT></B>,
+executes the assemble method for <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> objects. It should
+be called whenever one of the object's attributes is changed in order to
+assemble the string representation from its broken-down representation. It
+will be called automatically for this object by the parent object's
+<B><TT>Assemble()</TT></B> member function if the is-modified flag is set.
+<P>
+This function clears the is-modified flag.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> virtual DwMessageComponent*
+<A NAME="Clone">Clone</A>() const </B></FONT>
+<P>
+This virtual function, inherited from <B><TT>DwMessageComponent</TT></B>,
+creates a new <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> on the free store that has the same
+value as this <B><TT>DwDateTime</TT></B> object. The basic idea is that of
+a virtual copy constructor.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> DwUint32 <A NAME="AsUnixTime">AsUnixTime</A>() const
+</B></FONT>
+<P>
+Returns the date and time as a UNIX (POSIX) time, defined as the number of

+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> void <A NAME="FromUnixTime">FromUnixTime</A>(DwUint32

+<P>
+Returns the date and time as a value of type <B><TT>time_t</TT></B> that
+conforms to the native format returned by the <B><TT>time()</TT></B> ANSI
+C function. On most UNIX systems, this function returns the same value as
+<B><TT>AsUnixTime()</TT></B>. (For efficiency, use
+<B><TT>AsUnixTime()</TT></B> instead of <B><TT>AsCalendarTime()</TT></B>
+if possible).
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> void
+<A NAME="FromCalendarTime">FromCalendarTime</A>(time_t aTime) </B></FONT>
+<P>
+Sets the date and time from <B><TT>aTime</TT></B>, which is assumed to be
+in a format compatible with the native <B><TT>time()</TT></B> ANSI C function.
+For most UNIX systems, this function is the same as the function
+<B><TT>FromUnixTime()</TT></B>. (For efficiency, use
+<B><TT>FromUnixTime()</TT></B> instead of
+<B><TT>FromCalendarTime()</TT></B> if possible).

+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> DwInt32
+<A NAME="DateAsJulianDayNum">DateAsJulianDayNum</A>() const </B></FONT>
+<P>
+Returns the Julian Day Number, defined as the number of days elapsed since
+1 Jan 4713 BC. The JDN is calculated directly from the values of the year,

+<P>
+Sets the year, month, and day from <B><TT>aJdn</TT></B>, interpreted as a
+Julian Day Number. By definition, the JDN is the number of days elapsed since

+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> DwInt32
+<A NAME="TimeAsSecsPastMidnight">TimeAsSecsPastMidnight</A>() const
+</B></FONT>
+<P>
+Returns the number of seconds past midnight. The value is calculated directly

+ignored.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> void
+<A NAME="TimeFromSecsPastMidnight">TimeFromSecsPastMidnight</A>(DwInt32 aSecs)
+</B></FONT>
+<P>
+Sets the hour, minute, and second from <B><TT>aSecs</TT></B>, interpreted
+as the number of seconds elapsed since midnight. This member function ignores
+time zone information. The argument <B><TT>aSecs</TT></B> should be in the
+range 0 to 86399, inclusive.
+<P>
+<FONT COLOR="teal"><B> int <A NAME="Year">Year</A>() const </B></FONT>

+</B></FONT>
+<P>

+<P>
+Sets the month from <B><TT>aMonth</TT></B>, which should be in the range
