Simple question: How to find Elapsed time (in seconds)

[Bill Nguyen]

I need to display elapsed time for a process in VB.NET in secods.
What's the routine to do this?
Thanks

Bill

How about something simple like:

Dim StartTime As DateTime = Now

'Any processing here ...

ElapsedTime = Now.Subtract(StartTime).TotalSeconds
Dim ElapsedTime As Double =
Now.Subtract(StartTime).TotalSeconds
MsgBox("Elapsed seconds: " & ElapsedTime,
MsgBoxStyle.Information)

-tom

Bill,

As addition you can as well use the environment.tickcount
or
The new stopwatch class 2.0

I hope this helps,
