Using A Timer In A Array...

I'm usually very well a creating a problems and then finding a solution. However this time I'm stumped.

I'm attempting to create timers.. I know this is possible by doing...

visual basic code:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option Explict
Dim WithEvents tmrTimer1 As VB.Timer

Private Sub Form1_OnLoad()
Set tmrTimer1 = Me.Controls.Add("VB.Timer", "Timer1")
End Sub
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, what I need is to be able to create those timers, but creating them so they belong to an array of timers.

Any ideas, hints, suggestions...???

Heh heh, You've come to the right guy. I've madea little 10 mintue timer scirpt with VB, and after 10 mins, it auto resets it self. Here's the code.

CODE

Option Explicit

Private Sub Form_Load()
Timer1.Interval = 1000
Label1.Caption = "601"
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
If Label1.Caption = 0 Then
Timer1.Enabled = False
MsgBox "10 minutes is up! - REMEMBER THE 10-10-10 RULE." & Chr$(10) & "Look at something 10 feet away for 10 seconds." & Chr$(10) & "Click OK to restart the timer."
Timer1.Interval = 1000
Label1.Caption = "601"
Timer1.Enabled = True
Label1.Refresh
Else
Label1.Caption = Label1.Caption - 1
End If

End Sub

I'm not sure about the arrays, but here is how it should work. You need to drop in a label, and a timer function for it to work.

Just drop a Timer on a form, and set it's index to 0... then Load new timers, like this

CODE

For i=1 to 10
Load Timer(i)
Timer(i).interval = 100
Timer(i).enabled = true
Next i

And you would have something like this

CODE

Private Sub Timer(Index As Integer)
Select Case Index
Case 0
' code to execute for Timer(0)
Case 1
' code to execute for Timer(1)
Case Else
' other code
End Sub

I wrote it from the head, didn't try it, but I think it should work...
