loDateTime.AddSeconds(1)
? "Current time + 1 second: " + loDateTime.GetAsTimestamp(.F.)

loDateTime.AddSeconds(-2)
? "Current time - 1 second: " + loDateTime.GetAsTimestamp(.F.)

// Add 30 days (60 * 60 * 24 * 30)
loDateTime.AddSeconds(60 * 60 * 24 * 30)
? "Current time + 30 days: " + loDateTime.GetAsTimestamp(.F.)

// Sample output for test run on 2-Dec-2016: 

// 	Current time: 2016-12-02T12:59:13Z
// 	Current time + 1 second: 2016-12-02T12:59:14Z
// 	Current time - 1 second: 2016-12-02T12:59:12Z
// 	Current time + 30 days: 2017-01-01T12:59:12Z
