The are various alternatives. The simplest way is to run your program as 
a batch job. When the batch job terminates the process acounting info
(including
elapsed and CPU time useage) is written to the end of the logfile. Try
HELP
SUBMIT if yu know nothing about batch qork on VMS. Otherwise, you can
use
the $ SHOW PROC /ACC for an interactive session but that cannot (as far
as
I am aware) be zeroed before execution of a program. Finally, if this is
not
sufficient you should investigate the run time library timer routine
LIB$INIT_TIMER,
LIB$SHOW_TIMER, LIB$STAT_TIMER ... (try $ HELP RTL LIB$ *TIMER*.
