    @sunil_sacha , 

     

     You can achieve this with the following steps. 

     

    Step 1: Insert > Timer Control  

     

    Step 2: Change the following properties of timer: 

    #Property NameProperty Value
    1Duration0
    2AutoStarttrue
    3Repeattrue
    4OnTimerEndSet(CurrentTime, Now())
    5Visiblefalse

     

    Step 3: Insert Text box control > Set Default property to Text(CurrentTime,”dddd  dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss”)

     

    In this way you can see the current time in the textinput control. Run the app to see the changes.
