Trigger VB Timer with Key Press

In VB, you can trigger the Timer control by starting or stopping it in a key press event. The specific steps are as follows:

  1. Add a Timer control (named Timer1) to the form, set the Interval property to the desired time interval, and set the Enabled property to False (initially pausing the timer).
  2. Add a button control (such as a Button control) to the window and attach a Click event handler to it.
  3. Write the following code in the Click event handler of the button control to start or stop the Timer control:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    If Timer1.Enabled Then
        Timer1.Enabled = False '停止Timer
    Else
        Timer1.Enabled = True '启动Timer
    End If
End Sub

Therefore, when the button is clicked, the Timer control will start or stop based on its current state.
