All,

I am writing code to do a search within PI for a particular event. In my case, it is the start of a unit. I am looking for code to basically deal with the date in VB.NET. How can I increment the date by some number (this is modified as I zero in on the event)? I am passing the date to my PI calls as a string in the format mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss and have tried some code to convert this to a double format, and then back to a string once the number is incremented, but I am thinking there has to be a better way. If anyone has any ideas how to handle this, I would greatly appreciate it.
