    Where is the timer activex control in MS Excel VBA?

    Is the activeX control list complete in MS Excel VBA complete? I have Office
    2003 with VB 6.3 supporting the Office applications. However, I cannot see
    the timer activex control. How can I find it? If the list is incomplete, can
    I download it from somewhere? - When I tried to do so from the MSDN website,
    the .exe said it could not find VB 6.0...

    In VB6, I don't believe the timer is a separate ActiveX control. I believe
    it is a builtin control which you can only use in VB6 itself (and the
    applications you build in VB6).

    This URL still seems to work:

    http://activex.microsoft.com/control...86/ietimer.cab

    it has a timer control distributed with earlier versions of IE.

    Thanks, Tom - I'm using the Excel VBA, and it's possible that the control is
    not shown in that particular app.

    Maybe I sounded too vague. No, the timer control from VB is not available
    in Excel VBA.
