Here's a tough one. Currently I have a commandline in txt that opens the
access db and updates the clock on the computer with the internet. Is there
anyway to simply build this into the access db itself? Can an access db
fundamently change the clock on the pc (assuming no security restrictions).

Thanks in advance.

Assuming the user has the right to change the system's time, the VBA time
function actually lets you change the system time.

Time() = #12:00:00#

will set it to noon.
