>Is there a way to have the timer fire at a particular time? For example can I get my timer to start executing code at lets say 10pm every day. My apps will be running 24/7 but I need it to execute certain code only at 10pm.
Sure. Set your timer to fire infrequently (maybe only once a minute, every 5 minutes etc.) In the Timer event, execute code if TIME() > 22:00 (24 hour clock).
You probably also need to set up some custom Form properties that record that the job has been started/completed, otherwise your timer will keep restarting the job.
