    Angry Simple Timer (Countdown)

    Every timer i found on the internet is the type which displays you the current time in a label and in a textbox you have to type the time when you want to be alarmed, but i want something else... i want a countdown timer where you type the amount of time after which you shall be alarmed... example: you have a label with the current time and below a textbox where for example type 10 and the timer alarms you after 10 seconds...
    what i meant - you don't type the exact time when the alarm should initialize, but the amount of time after which the alarm initializes...
    example:
    Label1, TextBox1,2,3, Button1
    Label1 is TimeString
    TextBox1 represents the hours, having a MaxLenght of 2 chars
    TextBox2 same, but representing the minutes
    TextBox3 - seconds...
    Button1 - OK
    When time expires a MsgBox jumps out for example...
    If any of the textboxes is empty it equals to writen 00, but if all the textboxes are empty at the same time it gives error msg...
