hey.. again i wud like to ask for ur help..
im a really newbie to vb6 n a really stupid one..
so.. my teacher want me to test the time on how long does da program save the file to database..
so i have to put timer.. on save capture form,
it has to start from 00:00:00:00 (hr:min:seconds:millisnds) or just min:seconds:millis
so when i click save command button it starts counting and if the file has been saved on da database da timer stops counting, n i can see how long does it takes to save a file to database.. on a label..

i found some articles(on here).. but cant seem to edit it the way i want.. (im sorry for da stupidness)
here is one article i found
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread17352.html
most of it are countdowns and print current time, what i need is start from zero.. 00:00:00:00

Re: timer starts from 00:00:00

or try this in vb.net

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Label1.Text = Convert.ToString(DateTime.Now.Hour) + ":" + Convert.ToString(DateTime.Now.Minute) + ":" + Convert.ToString(DateTime.Now.Second)
End Sub

Re: timer starts from 00:00:00

use the timer function
or use a timer control

either works great.
