Jonathan,

  You will need to create a separate thread that would update the
time.  It would need to be an endless loop, and after updating the
time it would put itself to sleep for 500ms or so.  Before updating
the time, make sure you check that the text field you are updating
still exists, and be sure to kill the thread when the
applet/application exits.

  Hope this helps...
