Hi everyone....
I'm trying to make something work...
When I launch a new form, the application has to quit after a few seconds...
I searched the net for some hours and I can't find any usefull code ...
I noticed there are several timers in .net...
Which one do I use ?
Thanx

Hi,
If you're using Windows Forms, use a System.Windows. Forms.Timer. Put the
timer on your form and attach to the Timer.Tick event. When the event
fires, call Application.Qui t().
You can use System.Threadin g.Timer if you want, but this uses Windows
resources. The System.Timers.T imer class is more for server-based timers
that need better accuracy and ability to move between threads.
Regards,
-Adam.

Thanx Adam, It works great....
Below the code for other people who need it ...
Private Sub quit_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles MyBase.Load
Timer.Start()
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByV al sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Timer.Tick
Application.Exi t()
End Sub

I have been creating a generic countdown timer (source code below), counting
the seconds, minutes, hours and days till an event, but I have having
trouble with it finding out how many hours are left. When i get it to
display a complete countdown (days hours mins seconds left) it is one hour
short when counting dates that fall in the following time brackets:
2004,2,29 -> 2004,9,31
2005,2,28 -> 2005,9,30
2006,2,27 -> 2006,9,29
etc..

I've implemented a countdown timer for a tutorial web page that should
give the user 45 minutes to complete the test, only to find that the
timer is slowly 'losing' time. On average, it actually takes an extra
35 seconds, but has taken an extra 2.5 minutes in some cases. Any
ideas what might be the cause? And more importantly - the fix? Code

I have this script that works the way I want except for one thing... Once it
hits zero it starts to count up and looks like this:
-1:0-1:0-1:0-18 with the last number counting up.

Hello Peeps
I have created a program in VB.NET 2003 that counts down from 7.5 hours to
zero from 08:00. I have a button that starts a new countdown from 1 hour to
zero whilst the first one is couting down from 7.5 hours.
How do I pause that time that is counting down from 1 hour & behind a new
button restart it without losing one second?
I would also like the time to count down from 37 hours, but will pause after

Hi!
I'd like to implement a countdown timer on a webite. It should show the
months, days, hours, minutes and seconds until a given date and time.
So far it's not really difficult, but this website will be used from
different time zones, what will make a difference of 10 hours, if I use
the time-information from the client. The event will take place at one
fixed moment which is worldwide the same.
Does anyone know a way to solve this...

Sorry if this has been answered before, but I simply cannot find the
solution on my own.
I am looking to do a countdown in my application. Basically, I need to
count down from 5:59 (5 minutes, 59 seconds) and then perform a task.
Performing the task is easy enough, but the countdown is just slipping
past me.
Anyone have any idea how I can best achieve this?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
