System Time Vs Timer help

[‚΂©‚Ì2000]

Hi

i'll just started a new program. The program i have need to show the form starting time and update the time in a label in the background while the user uses other function on the program like calculating functions, login / search section etc...

The program need to record the section time and update it every secound while other function is used by others


I'm kind of stuck on the idea>.< and stuck on the code

To keep everything simple I want it just like the Windows date time thing. ^^

Since you want the Windows data time thing, try using a status
bar and set one of the panels to "5 - sbrTime" in the Panels tab.
It will automaticall update the time for you. no hassels other than
adding the status bar from "Microsoft Windows Common Controls
6 (SP4)". Thats about as simple as you can get.

Go to the Custom > Property Pages > Panels > Style and click on
the drop down to select item "5 - sbrTime".
