System.Timers.Timer timer = new System.Timers.Timer();

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    timer.Elapsed += new System.Timers.ElapsedEventHandler(timer_Elapsed);
    timer.Interval = 2000;

    timer.Enabled = true;
    timer.Start();
}

private void timer_Elapsed(object myobject, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
    Say("Time hit" + DateTime.Now.ToString());
}

what am i missing?

EDIT:

Tried to add:

timer.AutoReset = true;

For those curious Say Method is:

private void Say(string s)
        {

            try
            {
                txtSay.AppendText(s + "\r\n");
            }
            catch
            {
            }
        }

The say method doesn’t have a problem in there. Works with everything else.

    I think you didint mentioned that you getting cross thread exception..
    try to change code like that:

    Invoke(new Action(()=>Say("Time hit" + DateTime.Now.ToString())));
