Have A Timer That Runs Ever Minute?
Nov 23, 2011I have a timer that runs ever minute, but the timer waits the full minute to run the code in the timer. Can I have the timer run the code when it first starts, then update every minute?

View 3 RepliesI made a timer in visual basic, but for some reason, when i tell it to run for 1 minute (60k miliseconds) it runs wayyyyyyy longer. it does this even for 1 second, which seems to be about 10 seconds. here is the code behind it.

I'm having some trouble trying to get a 10 minute timer to work. Basically the user can choose to complete the question timed or not, if they select timed I want the program to display the time as it counts down and display a message once the time it up.
This is my code so far:
Private Sub btnstartassess_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnstartassess.Click
If rbtntimed.Checked = True Then

The program runs off a timer that execute the cndstart button every 15 minutes but then it throws out a variable not defined error "oleasMailItem" but if I take the timer out and click the cmdstart button then the application runs fine without errors and I don't know where I went wrong if I add the timer
[code]
Option Explicit
Dim MinCount As Integer
Private Sub cmdstart_Click()

View 11 RepliesI am having a mental block on how to work out a 15 minute timer that is shown on a label and counts down so that the user can watch it. I can do it just fine in seconds but I need to put it into the format of 15:00 and then have it count down the seconds and the the minutes when ever it drops 60 seconds. I found a few articles on using the dateNow syntax but that seems like it would only be good for adding time not subtracting it. Also I know I can set up a button to start and stop the timer but is it possible to use the space bar as the start/stop button?
View 5 RepliesI am working on code for a countdown timer, where 2 labels (Minutes label = label6 and Seconds label = label7). I have tried for a long time to try and get this to work, and it has to be "Hours:Minute" format. I will add below the awful start I have made
If Label7.Text = "1" Then
Label6.Text = (Label6.Text) - Val(1)
ElseIf Label7.Text = "1" Then
Label7.Text = "59"

There is lots of bugs, such as the last minute is cut out, and it is just buggy, the user must be able to select a time/duration for the timer to work, and also this must be able to change every time the time reaches 00:00.

View 2 RepliesI wrote an application that have two timers, one of them (timer_poll) when the ticks event i change the enable to false in order to execute a code. this code writes an information in a COM, and after recieved the information from the COM from a Funtion I change the Enable property for the timer_poll to enable again but it have neve run again.the timer_poll_tick_1 does not start again, i activate a breckpoint, I can confirm that the timer_poll.enable=true because i put a button on the application that on its click event it shows me tha properties of the timer_poll, like this:
MsgBox(
CStr(timer_poll.Interval) + "|" + CStr(timer_poll.Enabled))
here is the code of the timer_poll_tick_1
Private Sub timer_poll_Tick_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles timer_poll.Tick

I'm in need of a timer that runs a process every 31.25 milliseconds. Thus, after 768 "ticks" have gone exactly 24 seconds.The control "Timer" that exists in Visual Studio does not accept decimal values.So I had to round the value of the range to 31 or 32. But this raises a problem since the end of the 768 ticks there is a difference of half a second or more. And I need to run the 768 ticks in exactly 24 seconds.I've been researching, and I read some things about the "High-Resolution Timer. " But I did not understand exactly how to use it, and how to set your interval to 31.25 mils, and do that every period of this interval to run the code.

View 5 RepliesEg. ""vb.net" timer event trigger on purpose". This application is meant to run at all times to download a web page every minute. To avoid freezing the UI, I read that the best solution is to move the code from a While/Sleep loop to a Timer that will be triggered every minute. The problem I have, is that the user must wait for a minute before the event is triggered:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Timer1.Interval = 60000
Timer1.Enabled = True

Is it possible to force this event to occur instead of waiting for it?
I am trying to make a timer that beeps 3-5 times and runs a progress bar. All it has to do is click start (timer set for 2 minutes starts) and as time runs out the progress bar fills. When the time is up 3-5 beeps happen. I am missing the coding for the 3-5 beeps and design parts for it and all coding for that along with code for setting the 2 minute timing. There is no label for telling the time left or to go just a progress bar. Here is my code so far.

I'm using a Threading.DispatcherTimer and every tick of the timer runs a subroutine. Is it possible that if the subroutine takes longer then 1s for the processor to finish that it will mess up the time of the timer that is counting in seconds?

frm1 loads with a button to start frm2(and populate a datagridview).I'm trying to save its data in the module in the example but it might not be necessary.Then another button closes/hides form2 and you can push a button on form 1 to TRY TO get the frm2.datagridview1.item(0,0).value.I can't do any more tonight.
