The ATEasy ATimer control sends out an event notification at discrete intervals of time. The control is useful for background processing and is invisible to the user at run time.
The Interval property controls the duration of the interval and the Enabled property controls whether the ATimer is active or not. For each ATimer control there is only one event: OnTimer. If the Enabled property is set to TRUE, each time the ATimer reaches a multiple of the Interval property duration, it sends out an OnTimer event.
An application can have more than one ATimer control, providing flexibility in controlling multiple events.
