This function extracts metadata from jpegs, specifically it grabs the time a photo was taken:

For some reason, seconds always get rounded off to "00"s. I confirmed via the photo's Properties that there is indeed a value for seconds, so how can I get this to show up with VB?

Hello justinvalle,

The Shell32 object rounds the times because of different time resolutions on various platforms. Use the File System Object to retrieve the date and time with the full seconds.

Thanks, Leith! I will try it out tonight.

I think a "\" was missing from your if-statment.

You nailed it, Leith! Your function worked perfectly.

Now can you explain how to mark a post as SOLVED?
