Timer for ActiveX !

Hello!
Right now I'm developping an activeX control that will show up the current system time ,and my question is : how do I add the time to an activeX control window ? I tried the technics for adding a timer to a dialog window but it's not working! first I added a function to the control classe calling the SetTimer(ID_TIMER,1000,NULL);function.Then I tried to retrieve the time and show it up in the control using the same technics for a dialog window.I did all this but I can't get the system time .
please help me ! how really do I get the timer for the control class? Please I need your help!

Thank you very much.
