   Hi Matthias!  It's nice to see you again   
      
   You're a smart fellow and a great batch coder, and also a nice bloke...   
      
   I thought the trials of raising kids had kept you on your toes, and so life   
   got in the way of batch files. ;)

   I like the elegance of your solution - and it will keep newbies scratching   
   their head as they wonder how so many variable names get set. :D   
      
      
   It was only by chance that daylight savings is in force here and I noticed   
   that this solution ignores daylight savings time.

   Month=10   
   Quarter=4

   WeekInMonth=3   
   Year=2016   
      
      
   Milliseconds is an oddity.  I wonder why wmic designers left it in.
