Hi Fabio,
Yes, sure, this is a solution. But it is still a workaround for something that should be a property, imo. That's why I gave it one star only. :)
>>Occasionally I need a timer to do its job (as declared in its Timer Event) right from the moment when setting its interval to nonzero, not for the first time after x milliseconds, but for the first time after zero ms.
>>
>>I know a workaround (simply call the Timer Event), but a property would be nice. Is it already in vfp8 or vfp9? If not, I might add it to the wishlist.

Constructive frustration is the breeding ground of genius.
If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
Let's develop superb standards that will end the holy wars.
