I’m looking for stopwatch code in visual C++ since Visual C++ express can be downloaded free from what I’ve heard.
Or freeware that does what I want: start/stop button, option to display the elapsed time with seconds hidden – if I were doing it myself, I would just take the seconds and microseconds display out. And no time displayed otherwise.
I have Windows 7 64-bit
Anybody know of such code?
Thanks

There are lots of freeware utils for this.
Just try to Bing it.
Whow... never seen that before ;)Quote:

I downloaded some visual c++ stopwatch code.
But it does something funny. It shows the standard window that you would have if you ran a program. Then in the center of the screen it places the stopwatch display, not movable.
What I need is to have the program open a window that IS the stopwatch. How can I do this?
The source code I downloaded is at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...%29.aspx#Y1043

ps I compiled it on the command line, not wanting to mess with the whole project and solution thing. Maybe that's the problem?
I just downloaded visual c++ and don't know anything about it ...

I did it! I made my cute little stopwatch widget :)
