Hello. I'm messing around with the timer function and not getting results I need. I'm looking to create a timer which will tally only minutes (ie: 2 hours will show 120 minutes) I'll need a button to start and a button to stop the timer. Is there a way to do this or any code which I can tinker with? Thanks in advance, and apologies if it a very basic question but not sure how to do it.

The existing timer will work as it is -- just have it set to activate (to run the code in the timer's routine) every 30 seconds (a value of 30000 in the timer's properties).

You just have the  time you want increased every other timer routine access.  First access of the timer will always be 30 seconds, the next will always be a min.  Not sure how you keep track of the time otherwise.... but you could always just have:

your_time_variable = your_time_variable + .5

in the timer routine -- then just discard anything after the decimal wherever you display the time.
