Is there a simple way to set the time display in the system tray so that it

shows seconds as well as hours and minutes? Changing the regional display

doesn't seem to do anything. Thanks. - Kennard

None that I've ever found... but I don't need that accurate a system

clock and haven't done heavy research on it <G>

 

There are probably 3rd-party apps out there that will do it.

 

Try Google

Also check out the problems that OLD program (2000) has with XP.

 

My advice: try something else.

"Problems"? There is ONE - only ONE issue mentioned, having to do with

TClockEx's lack of transparency on the task bar. The result on my

system is a 1- or 2- pixel underline beneath the clock. Hardly a

"problem".

 

I've been using it for many years with no problem whatsoever. It works

just fine, is very customizable, and has a handy pop-up calendar.

 

My advice: stop making things up.

It also doesn't work if you auto-hide your taskbar.
