A simple question. I did a brief search for the answer but didn't come up with anything.

How do I change the 'timeout' value of a running timer? I am using this and it is working fine but I wonder if it is the most effecient way to do it? If I just use AddWindowTimer() over and over I wonder if it will cause problems?

It would, if you add too many without removing them.

Otherwise, the AddWindowTimer()/RemoveWindowTimer() function-pair is the only way to change the timeout value.

Actually I'd be adding the same Timer back in (same values) over and over again. Somehow it doesn't seem to be a good idea.

Seems safest to remove then re-add the same timer.
