<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I Have a TTimer component on a form and a field that the user types in the number of minutes delay required. &nbsp;I wanted to have the line <br />
<br />
Timer2.Interval := EDelay.Value * 1000;<br />
<br />
but I get the error message 'Incompatible types: 'Cardinal' and 'Real'<br />
<br />
How do I cast what as what to get the desired result?<br />
<br />
TIA <br />
