Hi,

true

Step by step: (skip the steps you already know :-) )

1. Create a new project. In the "Templates" box, select "Windows
applicaton".
2. Open the toolbox window. If not yet visible, select menu View -> Toolbox
3. In the toolbox window, open the "Windows Forms" section (if not open
already)
4. Doubleclick on the 'Timer'. You should now have a clock icon at the
bottom of the designer window and the word 'Timer1' next to it.
5. In the "properties" window, there is a value next to "Interval". If you
type 1000 in there, the timer ticks every 1000 milliseconds, i.e. every
second. 2000 is every 2 seconds and so on.
6. In the same window, change the value next to the property called
"Enabled" to "True". This makes the timer tick right from the start of your
application.
7. Doubleclick on the clock icon. You will be lead to source code editor
window.
8. You see a new Sub called "Timer1_Tick". You can now type the commands
that you want to be executed whenever the timer ticks. For example, you can
write "Beep" (without quotation marks) there.
9. Start by pressing the "play" button on the toolbar at the top.

If you need further help, you're welcome!

Hi Dean,

Try:

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
   Timer1.Interval = 2000
   Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
   MessageBox.Show("Tick")
End Sub

Place a 'System.Windows.Forms.Timer' from the toolbox on the form.  Assign
the number of milliseconds between the ticks to the control's 'Interval'
property and set its 'Enabled' property to 'True'.  Then double click the
timer component and add the code to the timer's 'Tick' event (the handler
will be generated automatically).
