Hi Benoid,
you can use the Timer Trigger in a Form to prodedure all kind of what you want.
For Example:
In every Minute should be show a Message.
The Timerinterval-Property is in Milliseconds, so get 60000.
Now use the Timer-Trigger to realize your Message.
ONTIMER
Message('How's doing?');
and run the Form.
You can use this for some Kind of periodly functions, Requests, communicate with other Programs and so on.
And a little suggestions: Use the Visible-Prop of the Form <img border="0" title="" alt="" src="images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" />
