The Timestamp functions enable you to programmatically read and write the Timestamp values of tag elements and access the timestamp information associated with a tag value.
No function taking either Timestamp or Quality as an argument can be called from the Cicode Kernel Window or through a CtCicode CtAPI function.

| TimestampCreate | Returns a timestamp variable created from the parts. |
| TimestampToStr | Converts a TIMESTAMP variable into a string. |
| TimestampDifference | Returns a difference between two TIMESTAMP variables as a number of milliseconds. |
| TimestampCurrent | Returns the current system date and time as a TIMESTAMP variable. |
| TimestampFormat | Format a TIMESTAMP variable into a string. |
| TimestampGetPart | Returns one part (year, month, day, etc) of the timestamp variable. |
| TimeIntToTimestamp | Converts a time INTEGER which is represented as a number of seconds since 01/01/1970 to a TIMESTAMP |
| TimestampSub | Subtracts time (in part of) from a TIMESTAMP variable. |
| TimestampToTimeInt | Converts a TIMESTAMP variable into a time INTEGER which is represented as a number of seconds since 01/01/1970. |
