Visual Basic Timer Help?

[Eddie J]

Hi,

I have a timer and a text box in visual basic. How do I get the text box to have text and when you click a go button the text changes every second to different text?

The timer is not needed.

If you have an array of different text values, then in the click event of the button create a random number and assign the textbox to the value at that index in the array.

TextBox1.Text = array[randomnumber]

place your incrementing code inside the timer function, and use the button to start and stop the timer

1. set up the timer with 1s period and disable it.
2. for button Command1_Click event do Timer1.Enabled=true
3. in Timer1_Timer() routine program changing text to what fits your needs
