Hi
I am trying to display time in a text box which updates itself every second. I am using visual C# and I am pretty new to it. (My first program in visual C#)
(Actually its part of a little bigger problem in which I have to implement a timer class, which will show me how much time has been elapsed since I have started the program. Again this elapsed time will update it every second)
I know this can be done using timer class but I don't know exactly how to use it.
I found a similar thread at DaniWeb, but I am stuck at "how to display it" and where are all the ticks thing that they talk about. Also I tried to use object browser but seems like I am unable to interpret what each thing displayed in object browser does.
So here is my code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Threading;
namespace Timer
{
public partial class Timer : Form
{
public Timer()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
String hours;
String minutes;
String seconds;
hours = DateTime.Now.Hour.ToString();
minutes = DateTime.Now.Minute.ToString();
seconds = DateTime.Now.Second.ToString();
textBox1.Text = "System Time - " + hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
timer1.Enabled = false;
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer1.Enabled = true;
}
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ …
