Charlie, the VFP timer is not accurate for that type of work. In fact, it will not fire at all if your app gets busy. Check out

>I'm trying to build a seconds timer that will display seconds elpased in a text box in increments of .01 seconds. So, I set my timer interval to 10ms (1\100th of a second) and my TimerEvent to increment counter by .01 at each interval. Problem is, counter doesn't seem to keep accurate time. Using second hand on my watch to compare timer, I noticed timer is about 20% faster than my watch. I must be missing something.
