"Calculating..." message

[missinglinq]

Anyone have any idea why this realtime clock hack would cause the "Calculating..." message to appear in the taskbar for one PC and not another? I've used it for years without seeing this message, but someone else (an admitted neophyte) using it swears the message didn't appear until he put this in his code.

The control is named txtOmega (yeah, I'm a watch freak!)
The Timer Interval is set to 1000.
Then the code:

Private Sub Form_Timer()
  Me.txtOmega = Time 'Displays current time
End Sub

Thanks

Howdy missinglinq . . .

Try:

[blue]Private Sub Form_Timer()
  Me.Caption = Time 'Displays current time
End Sub[/blue]

I'll get him to try that, AceMan! As I said, I've been using the hack for years without experiencing the noted behavior, but he is running the new, buggy, Access Flagship, as someone recently called it! More like the MSS Albatross, until they get all the service packs out!

Thanks!
