Add a timer control ('System.Window s.Forms.Timer' to your form, set its
'Interval' property to 1000 and add this code to its 'Tick' event
handler:

\\\
Me.Label1.Text = DateTime.Now.To ShortTimeString ()
///

Drop a Timer from the toolbox to your Form. Set Interval property = 500. In
the timer's tick event, update the label. Date.Now returns the current date
and time. Call the ToString method of the returned date object. You can pass
the needed format to the function.

Setting it to 500 is clever! I didn't think of that...

Greetings from a second day newbie to php. I think I have figured out a way to explode a field in a csv file (like 11-08-03) and implode it as 031108 and then compare it to the current date(ymd) to display data after the current date. What I would like to now do is use the 11 and display Nov. Can anybody help or point me in the right direction? Thanks. Bill

I'm still working on the bpm counter. I need to have at least 2 displays that are not static. One would be a clock/running time and the other would should the current beat count. How would I do this in Tkinter? I was thinkning of canvas-text, but there must be a widget for doing this kind of display. I'm a bit lost and would appreciate some help.

I need to display a couple of labels and a checkbox from each entry in my database. Simple enough, but there are several hundred records, and I only want to display 5 or 10 at a time. Can this be accomplished by putting everything in a Frame(), using width, height, grid_propagate(0) , and a scrollbar? or do I have to grid 5 rows at a time? If the latter, can I just grid over the previous 5 or do they have to be explicitly removed...

Hello, I am importing a flat text file, and putting it into a datagrid for display on a form. Currently the users have their dates and times seperated. I have two fields, therefore in the datatable feeding the datagrid control. Both are of the DateTime Type. How do I get the time field to display only the Time, and not the date, which is apparently the default.

Hi there, I am using a device context (DC) and a buffer to successfully draw to screen. However, when I update the DC at very high frame rate and drag the frame containing the image very quickly over the screen or I drag another window on top of the fast display, I get errors (Pyassertion ....). I believe those are related to a conflict between the thread that is updating the buffer (over which I have control) and the thread that is doing the...
