How to put a running clock on a form 2

[ZoDra]

Hi,

I am quite new in VBA. I designed an application which register coming and leaving of employees. Iz works fine but would look so much better if one would actually see what time it is before registering.

Is there a solution?

Thanks

Have a look at the Timer event procedure of the form.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hi ZoDra!

[ol][li]Put a label on your form.[/li]
[li]Name it lblClock.[/li]
[li]Type [!]The current time is[/!] as its caption.[/li]
[li]Create the following procedure:[/li][/ol]

Private Sub Form_Timer()
    Me.lblClock.Caption = "The current time is " & Format(Now(), "hh:mm:ss")
End Sub

Hope this helps.

Thank you both PHV and TomasLafferty. Sorry didn't mean to be rude, just my english is somehow rusty (long time no conversation).

ZoDra - you are welcome and thank you for the star! Incidentally, I did not think you were rude at all.

Thanks again.
