Synchronizing Timer and Computer Clock

On an Access form, I have set the timer event at 60s, in order to refresh the
time display (hh:nn) at one minute interval.

Is there a way to synchronize the timer and computer clock, such that, the
timer expires at the end of every minutes?

For example, Computer Clock shows ‘3:41 PM’, the time display also shows
‘3:41 PM’.

Supposing when you start you timer, the system time is, say, 3:40:34. So,
you start your timer with an interval of 26 seconds. Then, in the timer
event, you change the interval to 60 seconds.

Or, instead of having a clock on your form, you point out to users of your
database that there's a clock in the bottom right corner of the screen.
 
Thanks for your information.
