winform timers

I have a C++.net user control which has two winform timers in it. When the
'poll' timer ticks, it stops itself, sends out a poll, and starts a 'retry'
timer. When the response to the poll (or an independant response) is
received, the poll timer and retry timer are stopped and the poll timer is
started again. If the retry timer times out, the poll is resent. This
control is put on seperate tab pages which can be added or deleted by the
end user.

The problem I have seems to be if I start and stop a timer, I no longer get
any more tick events.

I meant to say that if I stop the timer and then start it again, I no longer
get any more tick events.
