Question

Hello all of you on stack overflow.
I have Asp.net web application which picks up image from a folder , resize them and dump in other folder. For this i have to click on a button to pick image an work on it very often.

Is there a way to make application run automatically by picking image from folder and working on it and then dump in other folder.

Setting can be like start application and run for five minutes and stop and then wait for 1 minute and then start and run again for 5 minute.

IMPORTANT thing is it should only stop after it has finished resizing and dumping the last image in interval.

this will save me lot of trouble because I have to click on button very frequently and disturb me .

I only want the approach and related LINKS .Lots of them . Please reply.

use a timer control to do this task

        timer.Tick += new EventHandler(timer_Tick); // Everytime timer ticks, timer_Tick will be called
        timer.Interval = (1000) * (1);              // Timer will tick evert second
        timer.Enabled = true;                       // Enable the timer
        timer.Start();  

void timer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        do whatever you want
    }
