>>What is the limit of the timer interval? I need to have a process run anywhere from 1 to 25 hours. Any ideas?

It seems to me that it would be _slightly_ faster and more efficient to have VFP check the interval for the time rather than adding additional code to check to see if the time matches. Yes?
