The EncodeDateTime function generates a TDateTime return value from the passed Year, Month, Day, Hour, Min, Sec and MSec (millisecond) values.
The permitted parameter values are :
| Year | = 0..9999 |
| Month | = 1..12 |
| Day | = 1..31 (depending on month/year) |

| Hour | = 0..23 |
| Min | = 0..59 |
| Sec | = 0..59 |
