Hey guys, I'm trying to use a timer to create a running stop watch when a user clicks a button for a time sheet program i'm writing. I've tried everything i know to get the timer going but it doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. I've set up some print lines to figure out if the line of code for the timer is being executed and it doesn't seem to be. I've tried other implementations for my program but the one below is the only way i've tried that hasn't given some sort of null pointer exception. Can any of you guys help me figure out what the problem is?
