    What i actually need is some sort of clock running on my form.
    something like a timer counting up or down in seconds or miliseconds.
    any idea ?

    GetTickCount isn't used as a timer. Its purpose is to retrieve the number of milliseconds that have elapsed since Windows was started.

    You could either use the built in Timer control, and take a look at the SetTimer API.
