Hi Houston,

You were so right, but I still get 12 seconds for Visual C++ and 8.472 seconds for VFP.

Do you have any thoughts on this?

Thank you,
Ali


>>Here is VFP 6 Source code:
>>

>pp = val(strtran(time(), ":", ""))
>>use C:\Projects\Lagger-3d\Desurvey\Desurvey
>>
>>Replace all Elev With 23.99
>>pp2 = val(strtran(time(), ":", ""))
>>? pp2 - pp

nStart = Seconds()
>use C:\Projects\Lagger-3d\Desurvey\Desurvey
>Replace all Elev With 23.99
>Use In Desurvey
>? Seconds() - nStart
