would there be a way to count how much time passed at any given moment? or do some something when a certain reallife time had been reached? thanks

Well, that's gotta be the most ambiguous question I've seen asked in years. Big Grin

me no understand...are you calling me gay? Wink

am i being to vauge with the question or not clear enough?

Good grief adosorken, it wasn't that ambiguous.

Try the TIME$ and TIMER functions.

Oh come on Sodapop, you understood him Tongue

Code:
t! = Timer+2 'Set the timer

Do

If Timer >= t! Then

 Print "2 seconds have passed."

 t! = Timer+2    'reset timer

End If

Loop while inkey$ = ""

have you ever seen that little cartoon on saturday night live called "the ambiguously gay duo" i guess that's the first thing i thought of.
z!re, i ment more like, starting a stopwatch timeing someone doing something, stoping it and then recording the time it took. kinda like that

Code:
startTime! = Timer

For a& = 0 To 100000

Next

EndTime! = Timer

Print "It took:";EndTime!-StartTime!;"seconds to complete the FOR/NEXT"

Although, if that code runs past midnight (starts pre midnight, ends after midnight) You'll get some nice errors.

TIMER is reset to 0 at midnight, and then count the seconds since midnight, with roughly millisecond accuracy (VERY rough)

sweet, thanks!
