subject: Analog Clock for XP

Mark,

I've given up on the idea of having a Analog Clock on my

XP Limited Users Account Desktop

since the three Free Analog Clock for XP "Setup" Files I Downloaded and
Ran last month, ALL wanted access to the internet to Download a Clock
for me after I thought the Clock would be in the Setup file.

I was just wanting to see a Second Hand moving on the Clock, that's all.

But TODAY I looked through all of the .CPL files in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM 32
and found TIMEDATE.CPL .

A Right Click - RunAs and using a Admin Account opened the Clock for me.

TADA!

Just what I wanted, SO I right clicked TIMEDATE.CPL - Send To - DESKTOP,
where I found I can right click on that Desktop icon, and use the RunAs
command to see the Second Hand on the Analog display move or watch the
Seconds numbers change in the HH : MM : SS display ANYTIME I WANT TO.

Whew!

I just thought I'd share with You and the Others here how I found out
how to make the computer do what "I" wanted it to do!
