It depends, i.e. you should design your code assuming the worst case that timer may either start counting when you don't want it, or the opposite: it will not fire when you want it. Basically, the best way to ensure correct functionality is to issue Timer.Enabled=.t. or Timer.Enabled=.f. when you really want to fire or block the timer. If you concerned about timer firing second time before current timer code ended then issue This.Enabled=.f. in the start of the code and This.Enabled=.t. at the end.
