The Timer() function returns number of seconds, elapsed since last midnight.
Also you can use GetTickCount() API function to determine number of milliseconds since last start of operating system (after about 47 days this value becomes 0 and continue to grow).
About DataEnvironment: More frequenly I use MSDN. Look at "Data Environment Designer" article.
