i write the code DateTime.Now() but it gives me the day, month and year along with the hour, minute, second. I only need the hour, minute, and second, do i need to make a Mid Function or something? im a total newb in VB Please help!

Here is what i got so far:
[CODE=vbnet]Public Class Form1

Private Sub Label1_Click(By Val sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles Label1.Click

End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByV al sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles Timer1.Tick
Label1.Text = DateTime.Now()
End Sub
End Class[/CODE]

... DateTime.Now() ...

Since I don't recognise the syntax, I'm guessing this must be one of the later (.Net) versions of VB?

If this was VB6, I'd say to use the Format() function. As for VB.Net, I have no idea. Try searching the online help for information on formatting date and time values.

Well, like I said. For a simple syntax question like this, you should hit the online help for VB and search for terms like "date", "time" and "format".

[Chill]

Lbl_time= Format( Time,"HH:MM:SS")

Use this - Time is a key word which gets instantaneous time of your PC

[Killer42]

Lbl_time= Format( Time,"HH:MM:SS" )

Will this work in VB 2005? It looks like VB6 code to me.

VB 6.0 is an earlier of VB.NET and VB 2005. All the basic methods of VB 6.0 will work in VB.NET and VB 2005.
So, we can give solution in VB 6.0 and point them this code is VB 6.0. That will be more helpful to them.

Bl***y hell Killer !!! But you are a mod!!! Reading through this and seeing untagged code just slip through the system like that... I dunno some times I think maybe me and you should swap roles ! :P no but seriously, there was some mean Admin that kept on PMing me about the code thing so just make sure that they don't get a VERY STERN and SCARY lecture like I had

And I know it had nothing DIRECTLY to do with the thread but ... :P

Keep up the good work killer
