Read the users guide!

Look up StartTimer and StopTimer in the alphabetical index.

Techno, there's a timer in use in the program I just posted here:

Take a look at the code to see the starttimer, stoptimer, and @idtimer event usage.

Could I also mention, that while questions are encouraged, user's are expected to read the users guide, examine the sample programs, and think their problem through a bit before issuing a 'heads up' post.

The reason is that this isn't a big company help desk - it relies on the good nature and availability of fellow programmers.  Sometimes they will be busy - sometimes they may not be familiar with the subject of the question.  In those cases, it might take a little while for someone to look at the problem and maybe come up with an answer.

So although it is a good method of getting some help, and we all learn from the answers, don't expect to always get an instant reply.

These comments don't apply to 'paid for support' - since I've never seen that system in action, I can't say how it works.

best wishes, :)
