Time and subtraction

I am testing performance and comparing time consumptions in Java and .net and for this I need to calculate in milliseconds. My timestamps are:

time1 = Now.Hour & ":" & Now.Minute & ":" & Now.Second & ":" & Now.Millisecond

when the calculation begins and

time2 = Now.Hour & ":" & Now.Minute & ":" & Now.Second & ":" & Now.Millisecond

How do I subtract the two times when I need milliseconds?

Try

VB Code:

Dim Time1, time2 As DateTime
        Dim icount, tCount As Integer
        Time1 = Now
        For icount = 1 To 10000
            TextBox1.Text = Val(icount)
        Next
        time2 = Now
        tCount = time2.Subtract(Time1).Milliseconds()

Thanks a lot, it works fine!
