Why does the GetMseconds Library procedure give me different results under different versions of MS-Windows?
GetMseconds calls a Win32 API function named GetLocalTime (see page 406). This function is accurate to 10ms under Windows NT/2000/XP, but it is only accurate to about 50ms under Windows 98/Me. The GetMseconds function in the Irvine16 library accomplishes its task using calls to INT 21h, and is also accurate to about 50ms.
