"When you put some code in Tick event of a timer and set interval to let's 3000 (3sec) . This means , it use that code for 3 sec then waits for another 3sec and then resume and so on ."

Please carefully re-read your posts. The Tick event will fire once every 3 seconds but it will use the code it contains only once, and that, in your posting, will be less than a millisecond. Under no circumstances would the code you first posted cause a 10 second delay.

Hi System_error,

Hope you are not getting confused by this.
