Hi all. I am thinking of developing a program that populate a listbox with fresh data from mysql. Could any one tell me how i need to make sure that listview has updated data at all time without user having to close and open the application. The mysql data is dynamic.I be happy if some one show me how this can be don.Thank

Timer?

ghost thanks for your reply. So you mean i put the mysql fetch data inside timer ? could you show me how to place mysql fetch data inside timer?

Furthermore,do you think all these pro application out there they use timer? I just want to to know if there are other better ways .

Well, do you already have the code for the MySQL Fetch? If so, post it here and I'll see if I can help you.

About the pro programs, I'm sure they're all coded in C or C++ or something. They probably use loop or something of the sort.
