Job,

The most easiest method is probably, typed in this message so watch typos or
whatever.

\\\
sub Button_Click_event
static started as boolean
static mystart as integer
if started = false then
mystart = environment.tickcount
started = true
else
messagebox.show((environment.tickcount - started).ToString)
started = false
end if
end sub
///

Did you know that there is a special vbnet language newsgroup

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

I hope this helps,

Cor
