Allows you to retrieve the current Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) from time servers on the Internet. The time servers usually have the correct time, since they all talk among themselves to keep things accurate. You can use the time control in any application where you need to have accurate time/date stamps. This includes financial transactions, medical data, long-term data collection, or anywhere else that a reliable time-stamp is needed. You can even use this control to update the time-of-day on your systems and servers.
