System Time on a Form

[Channah]

I would like to have a textbox or label on a form that I am working with that will always display the system time. I am wanting this to be updated using the timer event in the form properties and I will have the interval for the timer set to 60000 milliseconds so that the update will occur each minute, Anyone have any ideas on the coding for someting like that?

You practically got it,

now all you have to do is
1) add a label to the form
2) in the timer event, put in

Private Sub Form_Timer()
Me.CurrentTime.Caption = Format(Now, "HH:NN:SS&quot
End Sub


where CurrentTime is the name of your label

I have set a label on the form with the Caption Set current time. I have then used the following code and still it returns the error below... whats up?

Compile Error: Method or data member not found

Private Sub Form_Timer()
Me.CurrentTime.Caption = Format(Now, "HH:MM:SS&quot
End Sub

Use NN (which means minutes) rather than MM (which means months)
