View 4 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?

I am trying to make a Process Estimator application. It should tell the user how fast hes computer is. The output should be the number to calculate to and how much time did it take in mili-seconds (timer interval set to 100). I enable the timer before it starts calculating, but the problem is when it start calculating the timer stops for some reason...
This is the
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
TextBox2.Text = CInt(TextBox2.Text) + 1
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[Code] .....
Problem (1) Basically I got a Sub handling a button click, in the Sub I start my timer. In the timer_tick, a value is assigned to a variable and then the timer stops. This variable at the given time should be used later on the sub, however whats currently happening is that the the timer is starting; but I figured the sub must continue going as the variable dosn't change till the sub ends and then the timer begins to do all its ticks so to say.So basically how would one go about making it so that once I start my timer,for the sub to stay where it is, do everything till the timer stops and then continues.
Problem (2) This is in regards to the timer being broken, basically i'll show my code below. Whats happening is that at "ElseIf county = publicx Then" the timer must be stopping right before, as it's not doing the if statement and in my form nothing is changing and its locked as the timer hasn't finished. In my timer the form should unlock before finishing, so I know for sure its not finishing. So whats going on with my timer, why is it freezing on me? Also, for the record @ count=publicx both values are 1 and the countertime=0; so the variables are correct.
Private Sub Timer_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer.Tick
Dim CwStich As Boolean = False
Dim pbName As String = ("PB" & county & publicy)[code]......
I have three sets of labels, lbl_seconds, lbl_minutes and lbl_hours. These labels have the default value of 00:00 and I want the timer to change that for each label. I have googled this but I cannot seem to find any good info on it. Do I need three separate timers? I have also noticed that the timers have their own tick event handler. I guess it's in this that I need to change the value of the label. But I cannot figure out how to do just that.

I need to have a microsecond-timer in my program. The default VB timer doesn't work for me because I need to count time accurately. Does anyone know a way to count time in for example 0.1 milliseconds?

I have already made an algorithm for the problem but it still got a trouble.Suppose that I have the recap of schedule (contains on gridview named GV):
TimeStart TimeEnd TotalOccuredOnThisTime
----------------------------------------------
08.00 08.50 1
08.00 09.40 43
08.00 10.50 2
What I want to get from the algorithm is, to count the time that occured on the same period, e.g. on the time of 08.00, it's occured 46 event (see the yellow colored row).This is my algorithm:
Dim ColumnLength As Integer = GV.Rows.Count
Dim TimeStart(ColumnLength - 1) As Integer
Dim TimeEnd(ColumnLength - 1) As Integer[code]......
I have a this program I have to write but I have no clue where to even start.New Years Ball Drop?Design a program that replicates the Times Square New Year�s Eve ball drop. You can use a picture from the Internet of the ball you wish to use.Functionality Requirements:
-The ball will take exactly 30 seconds to move down the pole
-Need a timer to count down from 30 and reach 0 when the ball is at the end of the pole
-The timer will randomly change colour every few seconds
- When the ball has finished descending, the text �Happy New Year!� will display on the screen
-Need a button on the form that, when clicked, stops the ball drop and timer (so screenshots can be taken). When the button is clicked again, the timer and ball drop should resume from where it left off.
I wonder is there a way to set a timer for a specific time interval? Lets say everyday between 23:00 and 23:10.

View 4 RepliesI'm working on a reaction time program where I'll be testing... well, reaction time of a user. For this program I'll need a timer to stop at a random time interval, say somewhere between 3 and 10 seconds. Anyone know of a technique to do this. I've done some research and it seems there are a bunch of different ways of generating a random number just not sure how to assign that number to a timer.
View 6 RepliesI have a basic question about timers, that I can't answer myself. It's annoying me. My code is made to visit a website every X seconds. There are two problems.
I Set the interval for 30 sec and the first visit should be right now, not after 30 seconds.
After that, wait 30 sec and navigate to another one (in a listbox). The problem is that the Timer is not waiting that time after the first visit.[code...]
