After a control is loaded at runtime...

[Master ViVi]

OK, I've looped through a text file and loaded a timer control with names of which are in the text file, works fine. But after the control is loaded, I want it to increase a variable by 1. How would I do this? Or is it possible? Thanks!

Variable = Variable + 1

I know that.
But, I want to make the timer I loaded at runtime increase the variable by 1......possible? Or am I just over looking something?

If you have loaded a timer at runtime, then it should have an index of 0.

Use the Timer event under that index to do the job.

Timer1_Timer(Index as Integer)

if index = 1 then
Variable = Variable + 1
end if

I'm sorry. I do not understand...
I'm making a MUD(text game) and I want a timer with the name I just created here:

Sub AddTimers(FileName As String)
    Dim lstInput As String
    On Error Resume Next
    Open FileName$ For Input As #1
    While Not EOF(1)
        Input #1, lstInput$
        'DoEvents
        Set Control = Controls.Add("VB.timer", ReplaceText(lstInput$, " ", "") + "HP")
    With Control
       .Enabled = True
       .Interval = 1000
    End With
    Wend
    Close #1
End Sub

'<---Add the timers at run time with names in users.txt--->
Private Sub Form_Load()
FormOnTop Me.hwnd, True
Call AddTimers("C:\Rag\users.txt")
End Sub

...to raise a variable (HP, or Life) 1 per second.
Maybe I'm not very clear? Sorry my english is bad...
