This might help. It's identical to the VB timer control for use in Excel.

I have a form that displays the updating actions of many macros that are
running behind the scenes. While all of these files are updated, I am
trying
to have a box on the form display the update time in min & seconds
continiously. Right now, I am taking a time stamp of now-startime after
each
process and rapainting the form. Any ideas?
Thanks,
jbl
