asked on

timer in activex dll

How do I put a timer into a VB activex dll?  In a normal exe program I would put the timer control on the form.  But there is no form to put the timer on.

Thanks

You can create a dummy form (one that will never be displayed to the user) or use the free timer control from the CCRP at http://www.mvps.org/ccrp/controls/ccrptimer6.htm

I apologize for my ignorance, but how do I then use the timer from my class?

Thanks, your help is greatly appreciated.
