$20 to anyone that can fix my program the way I need

Ive worked for hours on this crap program, It measures your reaction time, and then displayed it in a message box. Ill put the code on medifire anybody with any coding skill at all should be in for a quick 20 bucks via paypal.

The test needs to run 5 times with a while loop (click button wait for green circle display reaction time in message box) then display the 5 tests from a array in the text box and average them.

here are the files from vb

reaction! VB files

I would not test your time between the timer2 whit a increment.
Instead i would have made 2 variable.
Starttime as date
endtime as date

And test the time diff between them.

Edit: remove the file.. and read the message again. See i read it all wrong sorry

Well i would just print the text out each time the user pressed a button and make a counter for each time timer1 activate it again.
Stop your timer1 when it reach the 5 times.
Then have variable saving stats like fastest time and slowest time.
Then print these out in the message box when it ends.

That was what i was trying to do in my vb6 project.

Edit: Well i edit again and made it work in vb6.
It show result, in text window whit fastet and slowest. Any other data can be added.
i made so you can choise more than 5 or less

Please go through the comments in the VB file that I have attached.

Instead of using another Timer to find out the time taken, you could store the starting time and then find the difference using a TimeSpan. It's more flexible.

I like that the vb 2010 ver has "ts.TotalMilliseconds" i saw it in some code on the net but couldent find a way for vb6

You could use the GetTickCount() API in VB6. :)

Example:

vb Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Declare Function GetTickCount Lib "kernel32" () As Long
 
Dim lngStart As Long
Dim lngEnd As Long
 
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    '~~~ Start
    lngStart = GetTickCount
        
End Sub
 
Private Sub Command2_Click()
 
    '~~~ End
    lngEnd = GetTickCount
    
    '~~~ Result
    Dim lngResult As Long
    lngResult = lngEnd - lngStart
    
    MsgBox CStr(lngResult) & " milliseconds"
    
End Sub

:wave:

Well i kind of solved it myself in a diffent way.
It was in the code i posted, just wanted to mention had a bid of problem finding a solution :D

Code:

---

Public Function MyTimeReturnMillisec(TimeCheck As Date) As String
    Dim Min As Integer
   
    Dim timetekst As String
    timetekst = "0"
   
    ' Didnt want to go above 1 hours!!
    If Hour(TimeCheck) > 1 Then
        MyTimeReturnMillisec = -1
        Exit Function
    End If
   
   
    If Minute(TimeCheck) > 0 Then
        timetekst = Val(timetekst) + ((Minute(TimeCheck) * 60) * 100)
    End If
   
    If Second(TimeCheck) > 0 Then
        timetekst = Val(timetekst) + (Second(TimeCheck) * 60)
    End If

    ' Here i get the millisec
    Min = Format(TimeShow, "ss") & Right(Format(Timer, "#0.00"), 2)
   
    timetekst = Val(timetekst) + Min
   
    MyTimeReturnMillisec = timetekst
End Function

But if the code can be improved it some have... maybe make a post "code it better"
So posted it her

Edit:
But looking at your code seem like a much better way anyway.
