There are other events that usually get triggered but they do not get
triggered during this test I am doing because the application is sitting on
the taskbar while all this is happening.

Does it do anything else besides use the timers to trigger events? I'm
wondering if it gets hung up somewhere else in the code that you can maybe
add a DoEvents() or Update()

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] Timers
I have some code that uses the Timer object but it doesn't always work
correctly. My code grabs the time when the program is run and determines
how many minutes and seconds are left until the next hour. A timer event
is fired on the hour that kills the current timer and creates a new timer
that fires an event every hour.
It works for a few hours and then all of the sudden it is off by 5 seconds
or so. It doesn't seem to be consistent either. Sometimes it will work
correctly for 16 hours or so and then the timing is off and sometimes it
works for only one hour and then the timing is off.
Does anyone know why this happens? Can it be fixed?
