Hey there i am just starting programming in vb and what i need is

1. to be able to print what day it is monday, tuesday, wed.. etc in a text box just the code for this is what i need.
2. want to have the time in another box
3. want to be able to be able to play a file when ever its hits a certain time of the day each day. The file does not varry just need to format for the shell command in vb so if i want to fun "c:\windows\welcome.wav" do not mind if it opens winamp to play the file.
4. how to i get the form to cheack a list of if statments every hour without having someone click on the button called test time? can i edit this maby: Private Sub Command1_Click()?

It only has to run 5 days a week

So i guess 5 different arrays that check the text boxes depending on what day it is. if you help me with hte top 4 things i can probable do the rest.

Thanks

Put two textboxes, one label and one timer on a form . Copy and paste

Dim i As Integer
Dim starttime As Date


Private Sub Form_Load()

Text2.Text = InputBox("Enter Time", "Set Time", "3:40:00 PM")
Timer1.Interval = 1000  'set to one second
Label1.Caption = Time
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Text1.Text = WeekdayName(Weekday(Date))
Label1.Caption = Time
    If Time = Text2.Text Then
        Shell "cmd.exe /c start x:\PinkFloyd-Wall.wma"
        DoEvents
        
        End If
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
