I have some real time data that i want to show in an edit box but at the moment it only displays the first value when the program starts.

What i would like to know is how to go about updating what is displayed in the edit box every so many milliseconds

Thanks

create an OnTimer() event handler that updates the box.

are there any useful sites that show exactly how to implement the OnTimer()?

I have tried a few of the suggestions mentioned and stuff ive found on the internet but im still having problems with this. This only thing i seem to have managed to do is delay the text appearing in the text box rather than having the number change as the input values change. I have placed the SetTimer function in the initdialog section and created a control event in which ive put my function for the fourier transform im using and i only get the initial value still.
