I am not aware of that current time.. Let me check. I also was using a
status bar not a toolstripbar which is what I think you are talking
about.. hmm

i haven't played much with the 2.0 forms designer stuff...but

once you drop the status bar component onto your form, using the "smart
tag"
thingy there...can't you add a "current time" panel to the status bar.

i seem to remember you get a few status bar panel types out of the
box...
current time, progress bar, keystate(capslock, srolllock...etc)

The PC's that are running the application actually are out of the
domain. I guess they could check the internet time service - but
wouldn't I have the same issue of needing a timer and to update the
display based on that?

maybe find a way to hook into the network time service that is running
on
most windows domains.

I need to add a clock to the status bar in my application.  It certainly
seems simple to add a timer and update the display every 10 seconds or
so.. but that seems so inelegant.  Does anyone have  any better ideas?
Is there  a component that people have used?



Thanks.
