    Hi, I was wondering, is there any way to execute code [a procedure, for example] at a specified system time [say 11:45:30] without having to use a timer to check system time every x seconds? Thanks !

      Well, you could use the task scheduler in windows to run your app. If you use a timer, you can set it to first check every 12 hours, then every 8, etc, you can make the timer smaller as the interval to go is less.
