So where would you want the timer to be at? I'm not sure what you mean you want a timer on your yahoo? Would you want it inside a dialog or maybe in the Quick Macros output? Where exactly would you want the timer?

this looks cool setting a timer for on screen, ive looked at QM help for what i need. i just dont know which one to use and how to.

what i would like to know is it possible to set a timer counting up for a window name.
and if its possible to have the timer in seconds, minutes, hours.

if it can be done could u show me an example.

Quick Question....What does the " ;\ " Do on the first line in the above quote?

[Gintaras]

Does not allow to run the macro when you click the Run button.

[QM_Expert]
