Add timer to a Windows Forms application

Question

I want to add a timer rather than a countdown which automatically starts when the form loads. Starting time should be 45 minutes and once it ends, i.e. on reaching 0 minute

Answer 1

Something like this in your form main. Double click the form in the visual editor to create the form load event.

 Timer Clock=new Timer();
 Clock.Interval=2700000; // not sure if this length of time will work 
 Clock.Start();
 Clock.Tick+=new EventHandler(Timer_Tick);

Then add an event handler to do something when the timer fires.

  public void Timer_Tick(object sender,EventArgs eArgs)
  {
    if(sender==Clock)
    {
      // do something here      
    }
  }
