current time in label

[Fox]

Hy if i use this for showing the current time in an label i get an error:

Dim now As Long
lbl_Time.Typeface = ProgrammFont
lbl_time = DateTime.Time(now)
lbl_time.Typeface = ProgrammFont

this is the error:

Compiling code. 0.06
Generating R file. 0.00
Compiling generated Java code. Error
B4A line: 617
lbl_time = DateTime.Time(now)
javac 1.6.0_25

found : java.lang.String
required: android.widget.TextView
_lbl_time.setObject((android.widget.TextView)(anywheresoftware.b4a.keywords.Common.DateTime.Time(_now)));
^
1 error

how can i show the current time in an label?

I don't understand this because it should work....

See this page in the Documentation Wiki. The routine there also shows battery level, both of which are very handy to have in programs which a person may be running for more than a little while.

You aren't specifying the text property of lbl_time. The third line of your code should read:

lbl_time.Text = DateTime.Time(now)
