How accurate do you need it? The easiest way is to add a timer that increments
a global variable. Simply initilize the variable when the form is loaded and
refer to it when you want to know elapsed time, or have the timer event itself
do something when the variable attains a certain value.
A more accurate, but harder-to-implement way would be to make a windows call
to get the time (if there is one). I would have to look this up for details.
