  I have practically combed the INTER590.ZIP files for the location
were MSDOS stores the system date.  I can find where it stores the
number of ticks since midnight and where the "day roll-over" flag
resides.  I have heard that somewhere there is a long word which
stores the number of seconds in a Unix-like convention.  INTER90
doesn't seem to know about this long word.  Does anyone else?  In
general, how and where does MSDOS store the current date????  I need
to fix the stupid roll-over flag as it forces my machine to loose
24 hours each day it sets unused.  (Another IBM original)

  Thanks.
