[Guest]

I am creating a form and would like a timer on it so that when I start
filling out the form the timer will run and when I finish filling out the
form I can click end and the elapsed time will apear on my form

Hi,

Follow this link to Microsoft's site:

ACC97: Microsoft Access 97 Sample Forms Available in
Download Center:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=175066

Download and install the Frmsmp97.exe file.
This has over 30 sample forms.
Convert to your version if necessary.

Then look for the form called frmStopWatch.
It should be just what you need.

You can also try MVP Arvin Meyer's site:

Look for StopWatch97 and StopWatch2000.
