Hi all

Is it possible to fire the System.Timers.Timer just once a day? I mostly
worked in VB6 where my timer is limited to once a minute?

TIA
Andy

Set the interval to e.g 1 minute. In the tick elapsed event, check the
timespan between now and the last time the once-per-day-action has taken
place. If comparison resulst in >= 1 day, start the once-per-day-action and
store the date.

That should work. The timer's 'Interval' property is a Double.

I am trying to fire the timer event based on a time component. Say at
22:00:00 every day. More like a scheduled task inside a service. Has anyone
done something like that
