Create An Array Of Timer - Raise The Tick Event For A Particular Timer?
Jan 11, 2011I want to create an array of timer in vb.net. My problem is that how will i raise the tick event for a particular timer, say mytimer(x).tick and inside the tick event there is also a button, say mybutton(x) which changes location every interval. for example:
public class blah
dim mybuttons(20) as button
dim mytimer(20) as timer
private sub form_load(....) handles me.load
for x as integer = 0 to 20
[Code]...
i dont know what to do next, all i want is to pass the button mybuttons(x) to mytimer(x) tick event, in which their index number are the same. i want to create one timer per button. how to do that? please help me and post example codes. i've researched the net but i cant understand passing variables, addhandlers, etc. i'm just new to programming object oriented.

View 5 RepliesCan't Set The Name Property For The Timer Control At Runtime?
Feb 3, 2010I am relatively new to programming and have managed so far with google and a lot of patience! I am having a problem naming timer contols at runtime. This is what I am trying to achieve.
1. I connect to my dataset and to my first record
2. I create a loop for the recordset
3. I create various objects on a form and name them using the info in the dataset
I also need to create timers and name them using the first field of my dataset. It needs to be dynamic as its database driven. There could be as many as 100 timers at any one point.

View 22 RepliesConsole App Timer To Call Web Methods Every X Minutes?
Dec 22, 2010I am coding in VB.Net, VS 2008. I wrote a console app that consumes 2 web methods from a web site application. I need to enhance this console app so that it launches the web methods continuously, perhaps every x minutes (during business hours), but never before the last invocation has terminated, whose duration may vary, depending on how many accounts there are to process.
Originally, I scheduled the application using Task Scheduler, but I think this doesn't prevent two invocations at the same time.
Although I have seen many posts on using timers, I haven't found exactly what I need.
So far I have:
Dim aTimer As New System.Timers.Timer()
AddHandler aTimer.Elapsed, AddressOf TriggerWebMethods
' Set the Interval to 10 minutes:
[Code]....
When should Timer.Elapsed be used vs. Timer.Tick? What is the difference between Timer.Enabled vs Timer.Start, and should I be selecting just one? I would like the 2nd web method to kick off when the first one is done.

VS 2008 Call Access 2003 Database Runtime Without Security Warnings
Apr 7, 2009I've got this program I'm working on in VisStudio2008. Basically, it accepts a password and executes an Access 2003 database using the Access 2003 runtime. I've got the thing looking up a password and all is good, but there's one problem those annoying Access 2003 and higher warnings about unsafe macros. Does anyone know a way to make sure those don't show up when the program starts?My client has a database that someone else wrote for her. She's not at a point where she could have it rewritten (believe me, I've tried to talk her into that). So I have to stay in Access but it's not very professional to have those warnings come up.

View 5 RepliesCreate A 15 Warning Before Timer Even?
Oct 6, 2010I have an app with a timer control, and the interval is set to 60000ms (1 min). so every min i have some event happen. thats pretty simple. however, i want to have a 15 second warning that the event is going to happen. so basically 45 seconds after my timer starts, i want a message such as "15 seconds left until event x happens".
would i have to use 2 timers? i guess im lost on the logic. i know how to use the timer control, but i have been googling all night trying to figure this one out. i have tried using 1 timer set to 45 seconds (for the warning) and another timer at 60 seconds(for the event) but they go out of synch after 1 iteration and will not consistently stay 15 seconds ahead of the other. i dont want to post any code i have, because it is all trash and i want to start over from scratch.

Trying To Create A 24-hour Timer
Jun 9, 2010How would I go about creating a Timer that will fire an Event every 24 hours, 2 minutes? I know the Interval in ms is 86,420,000, but of course the Timer Interval will not go that high. Do I have to have a series of Timers to go off every minute until 24 hours is reached???
View 6 RepliesUsing A Timer To Create A Delay?
Oct 15, 2009I'm using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.I'm working on a class. At various points, I want to insert a delay between executions of the code. Nothing terribly large. Around 50-200 miliseconds. It doesn't seem like much, but it makes the program run better. I'll probably randomize the length of the delay later between those two marks. So basically the code would go...SomeFunction()timer delaySomeFuntion()I have the timer declared as

End SubUnfortunately, I get the error "Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types"Now remember, this is all contained in a class, so theoretically speaking I can simply move the class file from project to project and reuse it, without ever having to worry about how the class works. Reading through the Timer specifications, I probably need to do some cleanup on the timer after I use it. Am I correct in this?
Create A Timer While The Application Is Running?
May 16, 2012I want to create a timer while the application is running. For example, the form has TextBox1 and Button1. When Button1 is clicked, the timer will be enabled and will print the current system time in TextBox1 every 10 seconds. The timer will be disabled when the Button1 is clicked again. How do I implement the timer and its events? An example with both Windows Forms and Silverlight would be great.
View 7 RepliesCreate A Timer That Will Activate A Tick Event?
Jul 11, 2011I am attempting to create a timer that will activate a tick event every 1 second until stopped by an "If" statement. The tick event should then drive a clock measuring time in units of hours, minutes and seconds. The if statements handle the time readout, timer stop and activate another form after a set number of hours have elapsed. I have tried several different methods and while my application is running, it does not add increments to the integers representing the time units, refresh the displayed time units, or perform any of the timer related functions. I assume the cause is that I just don't know as much as I think I do (which isn't much)
Here is the applicable code:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices
Imports System.IO
