View 4 RepliesI have a problem in timers, I want to display 2 forms each one after 3 and 5, how to do that? I mean when the first form appears, after 3 seconds another one will appear, then after 5 seconds the second will appear. I have a code where someone gave me here but its for message box only, thus I modify it to put a form still does not work. Here the code I put in the timer below:
Private Sub frmblabla_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
tmrnote.Start()
Private Sub tmrnote_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tmrnote.Tick[code]....
I still have problem when the message box stops, it displays all the forms together. All I want is when the message box stops, then it display the first form then stop to display the second then stop to display the last. The first form must stay for 3 seconds on the screen, then after 3 seconds the second appears then after 5 seconds the last appears.
Alright, so I'm still working on the slot machine. I have three timers all independently going for my three "wheels" of the slot machine.
My issue, is that I'm trying to make a Stop button to stop each timer one at a time, and I'm not understanding why this code isn't working. The logic completely makes sense, and the first "wheel" stops when I click the button, however, it doesnt appear to stop the other two timers.
CODE:
How do I let the timer do its job and then let it stop, for example[code]...
View 5 RepliesI've been trying to create a timer that waits for another timer to finish with its coding and, when it's finished, executes a series of code before stopping itself.
This isn't the code for the actual program I wanted to implement this self-stopping timer in, but it's simple and has the exact same problem:
Public Class Form1
Private Synchro As New Timer()
Private Sub MeLoad() Handles Me.Load
[Code].....
The idea here is that it's suppose to (using a timer) show the messagebox ONCE and ONLY once per button click. However, what seems to happen (despite the fact that I have 4 ways of trying to tell it to stop) is that the program creates multiple messageboxes until there are a total of about 49 messageboxes on the screen at the same time. I don't know if I'm using the wrong event (unlikely as Tick seems to be the only timer event) or there's a way of stopping the timer that I don't know.

I created 3 timers, i want each timer to take turn start which means timer1 stop then timer2 start, once timer2 stop timer3 start. But my code seem to be running together once i click the play button.And is there any ways to easy control how my picturebox move? Because my code for controlling it movement need to keep finding the correct number for it to move.[code]

I have a class (e.g. see Client class below) that holds details of clients that are connected to a server app of mine. In the class is a timer of type (System.Timers.Timer) which is supposed to act like a timeout notifier. When I send a message to a client I start the timer within the corresponding object. When I receive a message from a client I check where I received the message from and stop the timer in the corresponding object. If I dont receive a message within the defined period then an event is raised from within the object and I resend the message again. I do this a maximum of two times before giving up.[code]...
View 9 RepliesHow can I get a timer to run one interval,one interval only, and stop? Until now I have only used timers to keep running until I say to stop. Also I need a timer that will start at the beginning of, and run until any given process is completed.Upon completion it should shut off and tell me how long the process took. Kinda like a stop watch with a Stop / Start "Trigger".

View 3 RepliesI have a sub routine that connects to a database. If the database is unavailable it takes about 45 seconds to timeout, even though I used connect timeout=10 in the connection string.
So I figured I would try using a timer. This is how I have it
Private Sub SQLConn()
Timer.start()
SQL.Open()
Timer.stop()
Private Sub Timer2_Tick
(this is where I need to put a command to stop the sub SQLConn)
I have the timer set at 10 seconds. Unless there is a better way to do this what command can I use to stop the connection or the sub?

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 11 Repliesi am making a mini calculator and I have two problems with my current validation setup in the code. The code concerned is below:[code]Basically, I only want to allow numbers in the text box. When I enter a letter for example, the message comes up ok, but then when the box is clicked away, the rogue letter remains. Can someone tell me how to clear it properly?Also, when I use the backspace button in the box (pretend I want to change my input from 3 to 37), then the messagebox is prompted when I don't want it to be. I only want it to appear when a letter is entered.
1) How to I clear the banned characters from the text box after the message is clicked off
2) How do I get VB to ignore any backspace presses to prevent the messagebox from coming up.

I'm using a System.Timers.Timer in a service that seems to keep ticking after it has been disabled. I'm using autoreset = false so I would expect it to only tick once unless I start it up again. I'm calling stop again, just for good measure, but the timer keeps on ticking.I'm using VB.NET in .net 1.1 and don't have the option to change frameworks.Here is a simple console app to reproduce the issue. This is not the actual code from the project.I believe the interval is long enought to prevent any thread issues in raising the event multiple times, but I will admit I'm not a threading expert.

I believe I have found a solution! I will be continuing testing to make sure it DOES in fact work, but I'm hopeful :) I have detailed how I found the solution in EDIT THREE of the question.
For anyone wishing to know the full background behind my problem and what I have kind of tried as a result of input from this question, see this: [url]
I will be editing this frequently (>3 times a day most weekdays) as I progress my research and situation, so keep checking back if you are interested or have some information or knowledge of my issue :)
Quick Background:
I have this app I have made that can be crashed by changing my screen saver or locking my work station, and in general whenever a WM_WININICHANGE/WM_SETTINGSCHANGE message is sent to it.
If I can consistently crash my app by changing my screensaver, then SOME part of doing that is sending my app SOME kind of message (not necessarily a windows message, I mean message in the most general sense), which in turn is catastrophic to my application. Due to this, I am trying to find a way to block whatever message is causing my problem from being processed by my application. I am aware this isn't the best way to go about a solution, so you don't need to tell me. Look at the backgroung info or ask why if that bothers you (there is a good reason).
