New to Visual Basic

Go to solution Solved by manon_gfx,

I think you are asking how can format the time differently. 

If think you can use s.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds.String to get the number of milliseconds.

I am not sure since the only VB programming I have done was a calculator and tic-tac-toe game in like 2008.

You should take a look at this MSDN page: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.timespan(v=vs.110).aspx

How do i use the Visual Basic stopwatch so it shows in ms.

 

I'm testing to do a simple pinging program.

Now it shows it like this:

The StopWatch has an ElapsedMilliseconds attribute. Use that one instead of the simple Elapsed.
