OK, this example combines the READ EVENTS with the Timer example.

Create a file main.prg, with the following contents:

* main.prg
* (put your setup commands here)
* You can include the call to a global Timer object here:
private pcMyTimer
pcMyTimer = CreateObject("MyTimer")
do main.mpr && main menu

READ EVENTS

define class MyTimer as Timer
  Interval = 10 * 1000 && 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

Create an empty menu. Create a menu pad "File", with an element "Quit", that executes the command:

CLEAR EVENTS

Run the program main.prg - the timer will execute every 10 seconds.

You can return to the command window with the "File | Quit" command.

The Interval property is in milliseconds; to change the Interval to 30 seconds, for example, specify an Interval of 30 * 1000. For 20 minutes, the Interval would be 20 * 60 * 1000.

In the Timer event (procedure timer), you can put any other code which you want to execute regularly.

HTH,

Hilmar.
