| JoeTheOdd | http://www.javaop.com/~joe/VB6/SystrayUptime.zip Source and binary included. This does some nifty little API calls and makes a tray icon. It displays the system uptime (now "System uptime: 4 days, 1 hour, and 40 minutes") to minute precision as the toopltip. I had it to milisecond precision, but when you moused over it, it was gone before you had the chance to look at the tooltip (it deletes+remakes). Anyhow, it updates every 30,000 miliseconds (30s). Its a set it and forget it program. No message boxes, no ugly form (shown =p). Stick it in your startup folder and enjoy! | September 23, 2005, 1:37 AM |
| l2k-Shadow | Try using CreateWindow, SetTimer, and KillTimer functions. They will greatly increase the efficiency of the program and you don't even need to use a vb-created form :o | September 23, 2005, 3:10 AM |
| Soul Taker | GTC sucks for tracking uptime... unless you reboot constantly. | September 23, 2005, 4:36 PM |
| JoeTheOdd | Hows that? Is there any other way? | September 23, 2005, 11:58 PM |
