Instead of all the above use DWORD dwStartTime = GetTickCount(); //Some Code DWORD dwStopTime = GetTickCount(); Now the Difference ( dwStopTime - dwStartTime ) gives u the required difference in Seconds Appu.. "If you judge people, you have no time to love them."

NiceNaiduNow the Difference ( dwStopTime - dwStartTime ) gives u the required difference in Seconds

I think this will return the difference in milli seconds.. nave

In MFC, use subtract operator and CTimeSpan class:

CTime time1 = CTime::GetCurrentTime();
::Sleep(3000);
CTime time2 = CTime::GetCurrentTime();
CTimeSpan diff = time2 - time1;
LONG seconds = diff.GetTotalSeconds();

Note the usage of CTime::GetCurrentTime static function.

Yes .u r right. U will get the time difference in milli seconds. Divide the difference with 1000 to get Seconds. Thanks for the correction Naveen. Appu.. "If you judge people, you have no time to love them."

Wrong. Use this instead:

t1 = CTime::GetCurrentTime();
