Clock in form

[Neil Greenough]

Is there any way of inserting some sort of clock in a form? So, for example,
I have in the bottom left hand side of my form, a clock that displays the
day, date and time and changes every minute, as does a normal clock?

I know there is one in Windows, however the network my DB is going to be on
has computers on it with all different times and dates

Then what time do you want the form to display? Normally it will be the
same as the PC so I fail to see how this resolves your problem.

Sure just build an unbound field and in your form's timer event, set the
field's value to Now().

Also, look up "format" in the help files if you want to specify the format
of the data.
