TextBox Format for time

[Guest]

I have a text box which displays the time and refreshes by timer so I can see
the current time down to the second. Can I format the textbox to show the
time to the 10th of a second or better? ie - 11:35:46:53

Sorry, no you can't.

Do you need to know the actual time to that accuracy, or do you simply need
a way to time events to that accuracy? If the latter, take a look at my
April, 2004 "Access Answers" column in Pinnacle Publication's "Smart
Access". You can download the column (and sample database) for free at

To be honest, I just thought it would look cool. Like a stopwatch. I like to
have controls appear one after the other to give the illusion that the form
is being customized just for the user. This would be helpful to see the
timing.

That worked. I just removed all but milliseconds from your textbox and placed
it beside my textbox. Looks great and who cares if the milliseconds are
correct. Runs too fast to see if it is out of sync. excellent for my needs
