Article: Q58660
Product(s): See article

The following reference to the TIMEVALUE# function on Page 486 of the
"Microsoft BASIC 7.0: Language Reference" manual (for 7.00 and 7.10)
is incorrect. The second sentence in the remarks section states the
following:

   Time can be entered as "2:24PM" or "14:24".

This sentence should indicate a space between "2:24" and "PM" and read
as follows:

   Time can be entered as "2:24 PM" or "14:24".

The TIMEVALUE function is a routine in the "add-on library" included
with Microsoft BASIC Professional Development System versions 7.00 and
7.10 for MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
