I have a small program that works when I hit start. I want to add two fields. One being a hard coded username and another taking the timer (after it has stopped) and recording it to a table in SQL. I'll have two tables. One called "username" and another called timer. How hard is this? Here is my code so far that does work

All you need todo is stop the timer when thee task is complete and then perform an INSERT operation (or maybe an UPDATE if each user just keeps the one time e.g. a time to beat) to push the user and time into the database table.
Is there a particular part of this you are having trouble with?
