It doesn't get much more 'beginner' than me, but I managed to crank out a metric clock in javascript. Now I'm trying to make it an actual application with VB6, but I dunno how to get the time expressed as a number of time units since a certain time. In javascript it's easy to get the number of milliseconds since 00:00:00 Jan1 1970, and that made my life easy. Can something like this be done in VB so that it can be converted to metric measurements? Much appreciated.

You can use the Now() function to return the current system time. Look this up in the online help for more info. Also, Timer() may be useful, as it returns the number of seconds since midnight.
