    TIMER API


    Hi , recently i added a timer object to check for some thing at regular interval
    . If now i need to check for another thing at some other interval , is there
    a way to add different instance of the timer object to my code to implement
    different timer interval ?

    Your choice is to use the lowest-common denominator Interval, and keep track of how
    many "ticks" have gone by in between each task instance, or to just add another Timer
    control with a different Interval setting.
