Add a timer control ('System.Windows.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.ToShortTimeString()
///

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...
