Dim dateTime As New Chilkat.CkDateTime

Dim success As Boolean
success = dateTime.SetFromCurrentSystemTime()

System.DebugLog("Current time: " + dateTime.GetAsTimestamp(False))

success = dateTime.AddSeconds(1)
System.DebugLog("Current time + 1 second: " + dateTime.GetAsTimestamp(False))

success = dateTime.AddSeconds(-2)
System.DebugLog("Current time - 1 second: " + dateTime.GetAsTimestamp(False))

// Add 30 days (60 * 60 * 24 * 30)
success = dateTime.AddSeconds(60 * 60 * 24 * 30)
System.DebugLog("Current time + 30 days: " + dateTime.GetAsTimestamp(False))
