1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2. On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project
3. Under Project Types, click Visual Basic Projects
4. Under Templates, click Windows Application. Form1 is created.
5. Change Form1's Properties: .Text="Click to Start", .FormBorderStyle="FixedToolWindow", .Size="192,64"
6. Place a new Label control anywhere on the form. Label1 is created.
7. Change Label1's Properties: .Text="StopWatch", .Dock="Fill", .Font="Georgia, 24pt", .TextAlign="MiddleCenter". Select foreground and background colors to taste (the example is .BackColor=Hot Track, .ForeColor=Menu).
8. Place a new Timer control on the form. Timer1 is created.
9. Right-click Form1, and then click View Code
10. Add the following code to the Form1 class:

Dim startTime As DateTime

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
     ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        Dim span As TimeSpan = DateTime.Now.Subtract(startTime)
        Label1.Text = span.Minutes.ToString & ":" & _
        span.Seconds.ToString & "." & span.Milliseconds
    End Sub

    Private Sub Label1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
     ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Label1.Click
        If (Timer1.Enabled) Then
            Me.Text = "Click to Re-start"
            Timer1.Stop()
        Else
            startTime = DateTime.Now()
            Me.Text = "Click to Stop"
            Timer1.Start()
        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub Stopwatch_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        startTime = DateTime.Now()
        Timer1.Start()
    End Sub
