Syntax_Error

How do I show the current time on the form in a label, and update it every second or maybe every minute???

I put "lblTime.Text = DateTime.Now" into a OnClick sub, but that only works when I click it... how do I get it to change every few seconds, or minute?????

also How can I at the same time on another label make a timer that counts up continuously from when the application loads?

thanks

Your best bet is use a timer to tick every minute and run that little bit of code.

ok, I guess I forgot to mention this. I'm a VB newbie.

This would be done how?

There is a timer object you can add to the form, it should be a little stop watch-like looking icon on the tools side bar. After adding it, set the interval to the number of miliseconds you want the timer to iterate itself (in this case, 1000 for one second, or 60000 for a minute).

The code you want executed goes inside of the timer itself.
