Hi Radwan, There's something like a MySQL-manual when you want to know something like this, but I understand it if you don't want to read it at all. It's a kind of big. I don't expect it is possible top put a timer in MySQL, but why shouldn't you put the start time in the database. Everytime you need the number you described, you have to calculate the minutes which expired from the start time. Then you divide the number of minutes by 10 and round it down to zero decimals. Is this a solution? If not please explain.

Field number = 5 after ten minutes = 6 after another 10 minuste = 7..Etc.. Is it possible?And how? Regards..
