How to use the TTimer in Delphi
Introduction:
Well this is a simple tutorial, but its very important if you want to programm delphi.
First I didnt know how to use this TTimer in Delphi, but then I found out that it is very important to learn if you want to make great programs.
And this is only the first tutorial im going to make these days. Im planning to make many tutorials very soon. Now back to the TTimer thingy.
Needs: Basic understanding in Delphi, You need to know the object inspector etc.
How to find TTimer? Its under the "System" in your Delphi Compiler. Add this on your form. Like this:
Now look at the Object Inspector, you'll see this:
The "interval" means how many seconds eg. you should wait or something like that. 1000 means 1 second. So if you type 5000 it means 5 seconds, get it? good 
Now try to type 10000 in the interval box. And double click on the TTimer you just added. Now the code will show.
In the code try to add this:
Code:
Showmessage('You just created your first application with TTimer!')
After 10 seconds a pop-up will appear. This means you created your first application with TTimer!
