..sinceraly, Fu<k 0ff with this kind of a response, thank you. I'm not aksing to change theme or what ever; I need the integer value of the remaining time which it displayed in the left pane of the windows billboard. It says, for example: 37 minutes. I need this value as an integer value, or any hints on the methods how to determine how is this value calculated. Just for the record, I'm building my own billboard. And yes, I did misplaced my topic, but since I can't delete my own topic, I assumed some moderator would move it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep I reckon ya should have a license to post...
