I am developing an VB 6.0 application that needs to generate timer events(after 1 minute, for example) using which another VB procedure can be called. Using 'Timer control' with forms increases the memory utilization (2000KB) and slows down CPU. Using 'SetTimer' and 'KillTimer' API's caused exception messages and terminated the program.The size of the application too didnt make much difference. Can anyone suggest me a better way to achieve my ends? Waiting for your reply.
