Visual C#/WinForms Date and Time

Hello I want to create a clock in visual c#. Ive tried using the date time picker.

Yea. It gets the current time. But I want to have it auto updated just like a real clock so that the user can have a guide of the current date and time. thanks....

By the way its a windows form and I am using visual studio 2010

whit the timer you can do this.

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.timer1.Interval = 1000;
        timer1.Start();
    }

    private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss");
    }

Regards

You should use "Timer" and do some operations to refresh time. You can get more info here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.timer.aspx
