Active program: keeping the app active and checking time

Author	Message
Barna Kas #1 / 2	Active program: keeping the app active and checking time I am wondering how I can keep my VB6 application active or at least check the time every hour or so. I need it to be able run a procedure at midnigth every weeknight. All I need to know is how I can get the time and check it. I have the calendar, email program and I know how to minimize the app into the systray. Just need to be able to run a procedure once a day, a 24 hour timer.... Any help/source code would be much appreciated. Thanks, BK.

Rob Maso #2 / 2	Active program: keeping the app active and checking time There are better ways to do this than VB. If you're using NT or Win98 then try the schedulers (AT in WinNT, and Task Scheduler in Win98).
