Timer Event

[John Denton]

Is there a way to have multiple objects on a form with different Intervals?

Try playing with more than one timer.

Can you have multiple timers in a single form?

I downloaded a free ActiveX timer control, and I was able to add five timers to my form to control multiple objects. The timer I downloaded can be found at

The product is recommended for win95/98/me, but I successful installed it on a win2000. You just need to manually register it,

Start->Run->
regsvr32.exe hirestimer.ocx

Add the timers to your form by clicking the ActiveX Controls button on your toolbar, the timer control name is HiRes Timer Control. Set the timer intervals for the control by right-clicking then properties. Then depending on which intervals your objects need to be controlled by, enter the code for the appropriate timer control's timer event.

That worked great.

Thank you
