Do you need the API call that would bring up the Date/Time Properties Dialog?
The code below brings up the dialog that you get when you double click on the time in the task bar.

function GetSystemDir: string;
var
  SysDir: PChar;
begin
  GetMem(SysDir, MAX_PATH);
  GetSystemDirectory(SysDir, MAX_PATH);
  Result := StrPas(SysDir);
  FreeMem(SysDir, MAX_PATH);
  if (Result[Length(Result)] <> '\') then
    Result := Result + '\';
end;

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  ShellExecute(0, nil, PChar(GetSystemDir + 'rundll32.exe'),
    PChar('shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL Timedate.cpl'), PChar(GetSystemDir),
    SW_SHOW);
end;
