ClockWork is a Visual Basic 6.0 application built for Jon’s employer, the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service, to assist developers in tracking time spent on projects. ClockWork is a client/server application. Data is stored in a SYBASE database.

ClockWork includes a simple reporting mechanism.

It is intended that ClockWork run continuously. Hovering the cursor over ClockWork’s minimized icon in the taskbar displays the current work session’s elapsed time as a tooltip. If the user forgets to clock in or out for a particular work session, the starting or ending times can be fudged.
