Using Qtime

Qtime is comprised of two executables:

newqtime

creates a new Qtime database in the current directory

xqtime

is the main Qtime program. xqtime displays a graphical interface that allows you to (1) search, add, modify, and delete entries from the Qtime database, (2) launch timers (i.e. stopwatches) to automatically track time spent on tasks and (3) produce statements for printing or sending Email to clients.
