Thank you Alan and Richard. That makes sense now that it was done in seconds instead of nanoseconds.

OK based on what you wrote I made a quick datetime picker that when I change the date it would update a label with the tick marks. I put in the 1/1/1970 date you said and I got a number pretty darn close. I kept back tracking it a bit and I got to 12/31/1969 8:00:00 PM against the date of 10/11/2004 11:10:48 PM gave me 10975074480000000. Can you think of any reason it would have dropped off the 0's at the end in the XML file or do I still have the wrong date even though everything else matches?
Edit: Sorry I updated the numbers at the top to reflect the actual numbers I am working with. The original post wasn't the first item that Visual Studio actually looked at. Having said that both number match minus the extra 0's at the end.

OK, I'll try to plug in some random dates and see if I get anything off of that.
