[RESOLVED] [2005] how to set time?

[newpat]

how do i set that if ten second is gone, then do something, for example, it will close form1 then display form2...

Use a timer, set its interval to 10000 (ten seconds), and enable it. Place whatever code you want to run in the Tick Event of the timer and that code will run every ten seconds.

thank you^^
but how about just run one time?

In the Tick Event, the last thing you do is set

Timer1.Enabled = False

That will stop the Tick Event from firing.

    Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click
        
    End Sub

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        Dim form2 As New Windows.Forms.Form
        Me.Close()
        Me.Show(form2)
    End Sub

i hv written the method, but when i run it, the error is ObjectDisposedException, how can i solve it?

You are trying to use the Show method of the Me object after youve closed it.
Change it to this:

Dim form2 As New Windows.Forms.Form
       form2.Show()
       Me.Close()

Note that you have to set the Shutdown mode setting to 'When last form closes' for this to work. Its located in the Project properties.
