Stopwatch / Timer w/ pause function

[C.S.]

I'm looking for a way to create a stopwatch/timer that can be paused and restarted without resetting. What this is doing is calculating how long it takes an employee to complete certain tasks.

Whence the timer is stopped I need data in specified cells to be logged on another sheet along with the start time, end time, and total time elapsed.

On the sheet containing the start, pause, and stop buttons are three cells where the employee specifies this:

Cell B3: Current Date
Cell B5: Team Name
Cell B7: Policy #
Cell B9: Transaction Type

Again, when the stop button is clicked, I need the data to be logged on another sheet in the following way:

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 492pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=653 border=0><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 11pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 512" width=14><COL style="WIDTH: 43pt;

Obviously, it will need to log more than once (with different tasks), so I need the info to be able to listed like shown above.

Thanks for the help,
Clint

Take a look at the Quick Timer here - it could be modified to do this or at least get you started in the right direction.

doesn't help, i don't know enough about macros to edit and tailor it to my needs. There's a plethora of information on how to create a timer on the web, just none match my needs.
