I've got a timer in a window. Neither the timer nor the window are

Thinking that it might be a problem with that particular timer, I
dragged a completely fresh timer into the window. I put a MsgBox
command in the Action event and set it to 1 seconds, Mode=2 to go
off every seconds. And sure enough, every second, I got two MsgBox's.
Don't use a MsgBox since that is a low-level command and can
interrupt portions of your code. Instead you should send
notification to System.DebugLog to view on OS X Console, or to a Log
window within your own app.
I am not saying that your timer is not firing twice (it very well
could be), but using a MsgBox like this could mess up your test.
Do you think that you might have two copies of the timer running, or
possibly two copies of the Window?
