Dim myTime
myTime = Now()

Now() Documenation

See the Windows Script Documentation for functions to manipulate the time returned. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C717D943-7E4B-4622-86EB-95A22B832CAA&displaylang=en

Jscript you use the Date Object

dateObj = new Date()

gets the current date and time

You can then use getHours(), getMinutes(), getSeconds() to get the time using the current locale

or getUTCHours() etc if you want the UTC time.
