Sounds like a simple homework assignment.  So what have you tried?  Where are you stuck?

I know how to make stopwatch,but i can't make it to restart elapsed time with using the case structure. Here it is picture how i tried. I need help with restarting elapsed time when pressing Start/Stop button,so i can measure reaction time between Start and Stop.

It's similar like that only i need and stopwatch in that,when i press Start for stopwatch elapsed time goes off,when press stop for stopwatch elapsed time start counting,and next time when press start for stopwatch i need to restart elapsed time to starts from 0. I can't  find way to do that. Thanks for a solution.

You don't need the case structure.  There is an input to the Elapsed Time to reset the time.  You will probably also need a shift register and a Select function in order to hold the previous time while you are stopped.
