[RESOLVED]help on timer

[Joke Sparrow]

..

i dont know how to handle timer in this situation..

if timer reach 5 seconds then
something.visible = true
end if

if timer reach 7 seconds then
something.visible = false
end if


what is the exact code on timer reach seconds then?

[Raiser]

Declare any integer variable..

For example

Dim secs as integer
 
  secs=0

  private sub Timer1_Timer()

  secs=secs+1
  if secs=5 then
        something.visible = true
  elseif secs=7 then
        something.visible = false
 endif

end sub

Just define 1000 ms for your timer interval..

i does not work..
have you try this code?

and
where can put the declaretion?
is it inside the timer sub?

[Raiser]

No.. You should not put inside the Timer_ sub..

You can put inside Form_load or any other event..
