Can't get DATETIME macro value

Hi folks, in a script step, I'm assigning the DATETIME macro value as follows:

macro.Value = [DATETIME]

but I get nothing in the relevant macro. If I replace this with:

macro.Value = [DATE]

I get the macro value coming back properly with the relevant date. If I look in the system macros list, I can clearly see the DATETIME macro there.

There's no hint of any errors and I've searched the forums here with no luck. I could write a funtion to get the date/time or use the Format...VSS function I came across in another thread, but this seems to be a fundamental thing which should work.

Anyone have any ideas? I'm using version 5.0 of Visual Build, running on w2k.

Thanks in advance.

Sam.
