Hi,

You need to create a timer when user select a particular test and can repeat this to one minute or one second.

Then on WHEN_TIMER_EXPIRED trigger at form level you can write following code.

IF :txt_time > 0 THEN
:txt_time := :txt_time - (TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(sysdate,'SS')) - TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(sysdate,'SS'))-1));
END IF;


First set "txt_item" text item to your maximum time.
Note the above code is for second count down.

Hope it will help you.

Regards

Danish.

Use a Java thingy. You will find examples on the Oracle Forms website.
