    Question SetTimer API question

    Hi,

    In my program I am using 5 VB Timer controls. Sometimes 3
    are running at the same time. When this happens, it seems
    like the program hangs periodically...

    One is running an animation, one is moving an image to the left,
    and one is timing when to start moving that image.

    Would it be better to use the SetTimer API?

    Thanks in advance,
    Ron

    What are you doing with the Timers?

    One timer is running an animation, one timer is moving an image
    to the left, and the third timer is timing when to start moving that
    image.

    You could surely incorportate the 2 timers together, and probably even the third.

    Do you have any complex loops within the timers?
