Reading int64 from file & converting to DateTime

Hi, I have a binary file that I'm trying to process with VB.net 2003
The file includes a timestamp that was written to the file using the
following code:

With m_Writer
.Write(DateTime.Now.Ticks) 'Time Stamp
End With

How I do read that timestamp and get it into a usable form?

I can read it using
myInt64 = BinaryReader.ReadInt64
but I can't seem to do anything with it once I've read it

TIA,
Paul

Dim d As New Date(myInt64)
Debug.WriteLine(d)

When you say it like that it seems so obvious :)
Thanks a lot!
