2: Installation
---------------
If you are using Winzip, click the "install" button or chose install from the Actions menu.  if you are using some other zip software, it may have an install feature.  If so, use that, otherwise extract the contents of this zip file to a tempory directory, and run the install file.



3: Workings of the control
--------------------------
Long Timer's front-end is designed to replicate the standard VB timer control's.  The Enabled and Interval properties work in the same way as the standard control's (in addition to the usual Top, Left, Index, etc. which act as usual.)



4: Known Issues
---------------
There is a possibility that the control may run slow by small periods of time over long intervals.  I have not been able to perform accurate enough testing to check whethe or not this happens, but if it did, it would only be *very* small ammounts of time, and would probably take quite some time to build up to even 1 ms (the smallest unit of time as far as the control is concerned)
