I created timer function without much problem using the VB.Net sample.

Declare a timer object for the class as below
Dim _Timer As System.Timers.Timer

In the Initialize function, add

Try
            _Timer = New System.Timers.Timer(30000)
            AddHandler _Timer.Elapsed, AddressOf OnTimedEvent
            _Timer.Start()
        Catch ex As Exception
            LogError(ex.Message.ToString())
        End Try

        Initialize = True



LogError just writes to a text file

Add the Timer event(callback function)


Public Sub OnTimedEvent(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs)
        '_Timer.Stop()
        LogError("Timer Event")
        DisplayToast("Hello World", "Plus Test", "http://www.google.com", True)
    End Sub


It works great. I am getting the "Timer Event" message in the log file every 30 seconds.

Now for my problem, DisplayToast does not work. If I put it in the Initialize function, it works. Can someone please explain ?

Thanks
