Date/Time Conversion

[dapmco]

Thanks Paul.. That worked fine. I looked at the docs but could not figure
out how to do this. A couple of routines looked like they would work but I
couldnt seem to invoke them on my Windows platform

Input a date in some format ex 01/01/1990..
Return the number of seconds between 01/01/1970 and the date entered.

Dave
