In Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2002, when you use the
Timer Control, you may receive an error message that indicates that an
unhandled exception error has occurred in the
Timer control.
This problem occurs if you add a
Timer control to a Microsoft Windows Form in Visual Studio .NET. If the
Tick event occurs and the
Enabled property of the
Timer control is set to
False at the same time, the
Tick event may be called again. This behavior causes an unhandled
exception error.
