Also, it's an .ocx, so yes, you can just drop it on a form. (You'll need it referenced through your ActiveX controls though....)

I am trying to do some data processing at a given time every weekday. Yes, I can (and presently do) do this with a form and it's timer, however that is an ugly solution and I would like to do better. I will eventually port the whole thing to vb.net but in the meantime I want to replace my current "check the timer every X ticks to see if it's within a window of time" nonsense with a "tell me when it's time to do this" method.
