BCD Clock

chavak · Jan 29, 2004

Hi,

Some time ago there was a post asking about binary, and Eddie Willers introduced the - Binary Clock in his thread. Thanks Eddie.

I have generated the clock using VB6. Those who want to learn about BCD, may use it.

Attached is both the Source code and .exe.

Those without VB6, can use the exe file to run it. Enjoy -

Hmmmm, let me see....

Yep it's great but can you add alarm, 12/24 selection,
provide option to hide decimal numbers on right side,
rotate display so that binary numbers are in horizontal
and fit it in systray?

Panic,

Thanks for the suggestions, I'm am a beginner in VB, self learner.

Anyway I'll try to accomplish those. I always like challenges. Not just to accomplish targets. It give me a lot of opportunities to learn.

I prefer a more manual method of telling time...

Also clever

You got to admire programmers, they do things with a flair. I like it.

Yes, that was cool, grs...

HERE'S a more 'traditional' clock, although it uses rubber bands for the hands...
