     I have used the TimeRemaining variable to "count down" time left in an
     interaction to let the student know where he/she stands.  I was
     readingin the apw manual, p. 117, that "To count down time with a
     graphic other than the standard clock, use this variable to adjust the
     graphic.  For instance, count the time using a wait bar.  When the
     user starts the interaction, the bar is empty.  As TimeRemaining
     decreases, the bar fills with a solid color; when TimeRemaining is 0,
     the bar is completely filled."

     Of course, I'd like to give this a shot.  Any suggestions?

     Thanks.
