Time Tracking App

[wmikef7]

This is probably out of scope, but I'm hoping someone can point me to a better resource for the information I need.

I'm totally new to PrimalForms and am a lite-weight on powershell.

I want to create an app that will track time spend on projects.

I created a form with a list box that has all the projects.
A start timer button and a stop timer button.
And an output box(dataGridView), which might not be needed that I am thinking should show accummulative times for the projects that have had time worked against them.

I have the start and stop timer functions working, but that's it.

I would like to have accumulative time show in the output box and, int he futire have all the data for a day emailed to the user using this app.

Can anyone either work with my or point me to a very good resource for learning how to do this?

I moved the post to the appropriate forum.

I recommend referring to this post for general GUI help:

I also recommend reading the Spotlight on the Timer control:

http://www.sapien.com/blog/2011/08/09/p ... r-control/

It has an example form file that may help.

Note: You can use Get-Date cmdlet to measure time:

PowerShell Code

Double-click the code block to select all.

$script:startTime = Get-Date

#perform operation

$script:endTime = Get-Date

Write-Host ($script:endTime - $script:startTime)
