Timing Internet Connection

Ok on an app I am workin on at the moment I have it detecting whether the user is connected to the internet or not but if it finds the connection I want it to start timing the time spent online to a label
also I want it to detect if someone is dialing up and then start timing from there.


If anyone can help I would muchly appreciate it.

thanx

you could time it by using the existing date and time and the one set at dial-up then subtract the current from the old you'll probably have a lot of IF's but it'ld work
just use Left$ Mid$ and Right$ to get each section hour min sec etc.
Hope this helps!

Can U Give Me An Example Code?

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()
Label1.Caption = Time$
label2.Caption = Time$
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
label2.Caption = Time$
End Sub
Private Sub label2_Change()
Dim Secs As Integer
Dim Mins As Integer
Dim Hours As Integer
    Secs = Right(label2.Caption, 2) - Right(Label1.Caption, 2)
        If Secs < 0 Then Secs = 60 - Right(Label1.Caption, 2) + Right(label2.Caption, 2)
If Right(label2.Caption, 2) >= Right(Label1.Caption, 2) Then Mins = Val(Mid$(label2.Caption, 4, 2)) - Val(Mid$(Label1.Caption, 4, 2))
        If Mins < 0 Then Mins = 60 - Val(Mid$(Label1.Caption, 4, 2)) + Val(Mid$(label2.Caption, 4, 2))
    Hours = Left(label2.Caption, 2) - Left(Label1.Caption, 2)
       
Text1.Text = Hours & ":" & Mins & ":" & Secs
Secs = "0"
End Sub

---

This pretty much does it you'll need 2 labels 1 timer 1 textbox
