Timer

Occurs when a preset interval for a Timer control has elapsed. The interval's frequency is stored in the control's Interval property, which specifies the length of time in milliseconds.

Syntax

Private Sub object_Timer()

Remarks

Use this event procedure to tell Visual Basic what to do after each Timer control interval has elapsed. When you are working with the Timer event:

• The Interval property specifies the interval between Timer events in milliseconds.
• Whenever the Timer control's Enabled property is set to True and the Interval property is greater than 0, the Timer event waits for the period specified in the Interval property.
