SYSTEMTIME-type variables hold an exact date and time, down to the millisecond. There are two ways this type stores dates: absolute and relative. Absolute dates are "normal" dates, such as January 15, 1998 or December 25, 2001. Relative dates are dates such as "the 1st Sunday in June" or "the 3rd Wednesday in November", and are used when wYear is set to 0. Here, wDay specifies whether it is the first, second, third, fourth, or fifth (last) week.
