Hi,
I start a timer:
STARTTIMER win,8000 (8 seconds)
But the program then waits 8 seconds before it runs the sub routine in the @timer section of the
handler.
Why does it wait 8 seconds? and is there a way to start it immediately (or near enough) and then repeat every 8 seconds?
Thanks,
Andy.
whatever the timer is doing every 8 seconds you need to put in a subroutine.
then, when you do this
STARTTIMER win,8000 immediately execute
timersub()
and then in your @TIMER handler execute
timersub()
Thanks Larry,
Tested and working, sometimes you can miss the wood for the trees.
In other words, you can look to deeply at a problem when the answer is really simple.
Thanks again,
Andy.
