Hi everyone
I use the following code in VB 6 Form (Timer function) to show the date and time in textboxes.
My question is when the form is loaded, the textbox doesn't show the time immediately but takes some delay. Why so? How can we reduce that delay? -
'txtLoginDt = Date
-
txtLoginDt = Format(Date, "ddd, mmm dd, yyyy")
-
'txtLoginTm = Time
-
txtLoginTm = Format(Time, "hh:mm:ss Am/PM")

Can explain us in more details. Did you used 2 different timer for the time and date? Their intervals? Does interval is set to 1000?

Hi,
Thanks for response!
Yes, I am using one timer and the interval is set to 1000.
No delay for me, I've tried it.
Hi,

I'm not sure by this. Try to set your interval to 1.
Hope it helps
HI...
thats must be, because the interval must expired then timer code will be executed, you can call timer sub 1 time in your form load
for example
GOOD LUCK
...Try to set your interval to 1.
I like AHMEDYO's response. But I wouldn't recommend setting the timer interval to 1. You will be trying to update the date and time 1000 times per second. This is likely to slow down other operations.
Thank You AHMEDYO and KILLER42 !
It worked by calling the timer function in form load.
ThanQ!

Excellent! Glad to hear you've got it sorted.
(Note, lotus18's suggestion was quite valid, too. Although I pointed out a potential problem, it can be easily prevented.)

Hi all,
Hopefully something simple here.
I have written a form that takes data from a text box and updates it into an
Access database. However, I want to also pass the local user date and time
using date() and time() JavaScript commands, but can't find the right syntax
to put them in the input command, example:

Hi,
I`m trying to do date calculations in three types of time zones: local,
GMT and specified. The issue I am facing is that I need to be able to
specify a date in the proper time zone, and I`m having a heck of a time
doing so.
I have created a form where I use drop downs do specify year, month,
date, hour, minute and seconds. When the form is loaded, the dropdowns
have to display the proper values for the current time zone type. This

I have a gridview that's being populated from an access db query. The
problem I'm having is that the date/time fields in access that are

Hi - I am using a Date/Time Picker popup form for users to choose a a
date and time for use on a separate entry form. The date/time on the
entry form is actually entered automatically as a date/time stamp when
a user enters a record. So, the popup form is only necessary when a
user needs to change the date/time.
To make this more user-friendly...there will be times when a user will
be away from the computer, and therefore, will have to...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
