Re: Program not ending???

Allright first off I can't keep updating down in the message. I'm getting lost.

Where do I put your code?  I'm looking at a form with a timer on it.

That's fine. What event would I use. 

There is no event. These are two commands or two blocks of commands.

 I do not wish to use another
control--timer.


Why?

I want this to run when the program starts. 

See my other code: it runs in Sub Main. Sub Main is the sub that is started
when you start the application (open the project properties to set the
"startup object")

Since
you indicated you have experience pre-.net please help me from that
mindset.  I do not understand your .net code.


Which part? The code only

1. shows the Form
2. Shows the Folderbrowserdialog
3. If step two has not been cancelled:
3.1. The path is passed to the Form and the timer is started.
3.2. Application.run starts the message loop (running til the Form has been
closed)
