  hi remco,
  
  there were build error saying "the event elapsed could not be found".
  
  i've tried this code and works;
  
  label1.text = now
  
  but ofcourse label1 will display both the current date and time. my question is how to display only the system time
  
  thanks,
  mac

  hi,
  
  in vb6, the way i displayed the system clock on a form is like this;
  
  Timer 1 Interval = 10
  
  Private Sub Timer1_Timer ()
  Label1.caption = Time
  End Sub
  
  this code desn't work in vb.net 2003. what has changed
  
  thanks,
  mac

  Hi,

  I've tried this in VB2005 im not quite sure if this would work in 2003. But just give it a try.

  label1.Text = Now.ToString("hh:mm")

   

   

  cheers,

  Some time ago i explained it to someone with a simmular question
  
  Like so
  
  Assuming you have a form called 'form1' a Timer called 'timer1'and a label called 'label1'
  
  
  

  Form variable Private _strArray(4) As String Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load _strArray(0) = "aaaaaa" _strArray(1) = "bbbbbb" _strArray(2) = "cccccc" _strArray(3) = "dddddd" _strArray(4) = "eeeeee" End Sub Private Sub Timer1_Elapsed(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) Handles Timer1.Elapsed Static INDEX As Integer     Label1.Text = _strArray(INDEX)     If INDEX = (UBound(_strArray) - 1) Then        INDEX = 0     Else        INDEX += 1     End If End Sub

  
  
  For some reason could not find it over here anymore , so I pulled it from a google cache

  Hi,

  A timer is like a clock. You could set the time on which the code in its tick event would execute. You can control the time by setting its Interval property (its in milliseconds)...

  Hi,

  It is similar in VB.net. Here are the steps:

  1. Set the Interval property of the Timer in the Design.
  2. Double Click the Timer to create the Tick() event. Place whatever you want on the tick() event...
