If your timer object was born inside application and you ran nodal form or functions like
getfile() etc and did not close their dialog, timer will wait for them, will close
What I did
1 I used timer to close not modal forms
2 I had special table to set some filed value like the signal to quit
This table was opened in all modal forms
If form have seen this, it make self killing
