Re: how to set timer.interval = 1 hour? A Timer's interval can only be set to 60,000 (60 seconds). The best thing to do is have a start date which you can set in a variable using String = Now, then in your timer have it constantly check String Vs Now to see if an hour has gone by.
Re: How To Set More Than 1 Minute To A Timer. You really should not use a text box for something like this, instead you should use a local static variable. Code: Private Sub Timer1_Timer() Static Ticks as Integer. Ticks=Ticks+1. If Ticks=10 Then. 'do something. Ticks=0.
Re: Count down timer in VB.NET. Dim startTime As Integer = 3600 'start counting down from 1 hour (3600 seconds) Dim currentTime As Integer 'to keep track of the current time left. Dim timerRunning As Boolean 'to check if the timer is running. Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load.
So to run the timer for an hour, set the tag value to 3600, set the timer interval to 1000 (1 second) and in the timer_timer event do the following, works a treat. Code: Private Sub Timer1_Timer() Timer1.Tag = Timer2.Tag - 1 If Timer2.Tag = -1 Then Timer2.Enabled = False 'Do Stuff Timer1.Tag = 3600 Timer2.Enabled = True End If End Sub
Re: Need a timer that will execute code every day at a certain time. You could do this: Code: Option Strict On. Option Explicit On. Public Class Form1. Private tmr As Timer. Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load. tmr = New Timer With {.Interval = 60000, .Enabled = True}
VB Code: myTimer.Interval = Convert.ToInt32(alarmTime.Subtract(Date.Now).TotalMilliseconds) Then in the Tick event handler you just set the Interval to one hour: VB Code: myTimer.Interval = 60 * 60 * 1000 '60 minutes x 60 seconds x 1000 milliseconds.
There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. That means there are 60 * 1000 milliseconds in 1 minute. that value equals 60000. So a timer with an interval set to 60000, will fire its event once every 60 seconds. So if you want 10 minutes, you take 60000 and multiply it by 10 and that is the interval you set to have a timer go off every 10 minutes.
you have to integer divide seconds by 60 to get minutes, and minutes by 60 to get hours, keep the remainders from each division for the minutes and seconds to display. where s is a number of seconds. Code: m = s \ 60. s = s Mod 60. h = m \ 60. m = m Mod 60. MsgBox h & ":" & m & ":" & s. Private Sub Form_Load ()
The Timer value can be easily converted to milliseconds. The code is below. Dim t As TimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds (66666) Dim Hour As Integer = t.Hours. Dim Minute As Integer = t.Minutes. Dim Second As Integer = t.Seconds.
The system time functions all work to a particular resolution, on my system it's default is 1/64th of a second. This means that any interval I set is effectively rounded up to the nearest 1/64th of a second (100ms -> 109.3ms). Also a timer control will wait for it's event code to finish executing before it starts it's timing for the next event.
