System.Timers.Timer.Tick does not exist

In a Codeproject tutorial,
http://codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/f...&select=785273
System.Timers.Timer.Tick is used, but apparently no such 'property'(?)
exists. What is the correct coding?
// Code --------------------------------

private System.Timers.Timer rotateTimer = null;

public void StartRotation(bool state)
{
rotateTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
rotateTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(OnTimedEvent);
rotateTimer.Interval= 500;
rotateTimer.Enabled = true;
}

// -------------------------------------
thank you very much!

Well, it's not a property, it's an event. However, it's an event on
System.Windows.Forms.Timer, not System.Timers.Timer.

Looks like that's a bug in the web page - I can't be bothered to sign
up, so I don't know whether the same bug is also in the downloadable
sources.

Build Succeeded
You saved my tutorial. The code is wrong the downloadable file as well.
Maybe it is .NET beta style?

Thank you for your valuable help

It looks like it was submitted during the beta, yes. Maybe you should
contact the author to get it corrected?
