How to fire timer.Elapsed event immediately

Question

I\'m using the System.Timers.Timer class to create a timer with an Timer.Elapsed event. The thing is the Timer.Elapsed event is fired

Answer 1

I'm not a pro so take this with a pinch of salt but it works. I created a function and instead of putting my code into the timer sub I put it into the function. Then I merely called the function when I wanted it (in my case on page load) and then the timer code would fire at the interval times and simply call the function in the timer sub code.
