Hi,
If you are talking of a software stop watch you can directly make use of the "Elapsed time" express vi present in the time and dialog fuction pallet,else if you are talking of a hardware stopwtch then you will have to tell us what hardware you want to use and what is the action to be taken when the specified time is over.
cheers

Hi Jaxx

Attached is a very simple stop watch.

If you push "Start/Stop" button time counting is started and it runs as long as this button is true.

Hope it helps.

An addition to your answer vicky.

The express vi Elapsed Time uses a target time. If this time is reached it resets - so for a "real" stop watch, I wouldn't use it.
