IFaxStatus::get_ElapsedTime

The IFaxStatus::get_ElapsedTime method retrieves the ElapsedTime property for the FaxStatus object of a parent FaxPort object. The ElapsedTime property is a number that represents the elapsed time for an active fax job.

Visual Basic Reference

HRESULT get_ElapsedTime(
  DATE *pVal  // receives elapsed time for transmission
);

Parameters

pVal

[out] Pointer to an 8-byte floating-point number that contains the time that has elapsed, in seconds, since the fax job began transmitting the document on the specified port.

For more information about the DATE data type, see the Microsoft Visual C++ Programmer's Guide.

Return Values

Returns an HRESULT value indicating success or failure. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns a COM-defined error code.

You should not check directly for success or failure. Use the COM SUCCEEDED and FAILED macros instead.

Remarks

You can use the ElapsedTime property of a FaxStatus object in conjunction with the StartTime property of the object to inform users about the transmission length of a fax job.
