I need a simple stopwatch on screen. (Just the numbers)
It needs to start at 00:00 and count up. 00:00:01, 00:00:02, 00:00:03...
..00:00:59, 00:01:00, 00:01:01, 00:01:02 etc. accurately counting seconds, minutes, hours on and on until I tell it to stop.
I have experimented with CurrentTime(), MilliSecs(), and CreatTimer() but have been unable to figure out how to make any of those work correctly.
Did a search in the forum for stopwatch, clock, timer and none of these resulted in anything close to what is needed.

This is probably real beginners stuff - but hey, I'm a beginner.

Thank you very much for any help given.
