Timing the pressing and releasing of a PushButton ?

[serandre]

	ButtonPress var GPIO.3
	Time var Word

	Time=0
	While ButtonPress=0
	Time=Time+1
	Pause 10
	Wend

This code will save my project. And so clean and simple... :-)

Thanks a lot Melanie !

Just one last comment... if you have a crappy switch subject to bounce, use a larger PAUSE step of say 25 or 50mS and that will eliminate it (personally I tend to use 75 or even 100mS).

A note to auto exit after say 500 ms:

Within the while loop put an If time>500 then exit1

So the user does not need to hold the button more than the necessary time.
