Of course it won't work; I didn't write code that should be executed, but properties (and methods) which you should assign to a Timer object.

Here is an example which you can copy to a PRG (or to the command window), to see how a Timer works.

x = CreateObject("MyTimer")
MessageBox("Click OK to exit.")

define class MyTimer as Timer
  Interval = 10 * 1000 && every 10 seconds
  Procedure Timer
    ?? chr(7)
    wait window "Hello, Mohammed" + chr(13) + chr(10) + "This is a Timer example" timeout 2
    wait clear
  Endproc
enddefine

Note: the .Enabled property is .T., by default.

However, it is easier to create a Timer (or other objects) through the Project Manager.
