Digital clock that continuously updates from NOW()
How do I get the NOW() function to continuously update in the hours, minutes,
second format, like a digital clock. Any help would be appreciated. -- Ed |

Where? On a UserForm perhaps...
Give this a try. Right-click the UserForm's ToolBox and select "Additional Controls" from the popup menu that appears. Scroll down to "Microsoft Status Bar Control 6.0" and select it. This will add the "Status Bar" control to the Toolbox. Place a "Status Bar" control on your UserForm. Highlight (select) and click on the Custom property in the Properties window and click on the button with the "three-dots" caption. You can play around with adding panels and what not, but for your requested option, click on the Panels tab. One panel should already exist on the "Status Bar" by default. Change that panel's Alignment property to 2-sbrRight, Style property to 5-sbrTime and AutoSize property to 1-sbrSprint. Hit OK and watch the displayed time change automatically.

Hi Rick,
That works great. Can I get the seconds to update also? -- Ed "Rick Rothstein (MVP - VB)" wrote: Where? On a UserForm perhaps... Give this a try.

Hi,
I am replying to your answer again because my first reply did not get posted. Can you add seconds to the clock? -- Ed "Rick Rothstein (MVP - VB)" wrote: Where? On a UserForm perhaps...
