As you can see, after hitting button1 for the first time, we will jump to a CountDown() method, which I originaly planed on using to put my timer code in to keep things clean.
I have looked on MSDN, for timer: http://search.msdn.microsoft.com/sea...=0&query=timer
but there was so much there, I didn't know where to really start, I also tryed google, with confusing results.
It's prob not as hard as I'm making it. I wanted this timer to count down from 30 min. Can someone *please* help me get started with a timer that would count down 30 min?
EDIT: ok, this is what I have for my timer so far http://www.nomorepasting.com/paste.php?pasteID=64923 when I set int StartTime = 900; my program does its disapearing thing for exactly 9 secounds... but when I set int StartTime = 1000; my program only does its thing for 6 secounds... wierd or what? I have the alarm component interval set to 1
