I need to make a text blink. I thought of a System.Threading.Timer and
an Invoke function but this approach gives me headaches. Is there a
better option ?

Why not use 'System.Windows.Forms.Timer'?

You are perfectly right. Until now I haven't noticed that Tick Event. I
was looking only for timers that call methods.
Thank you very much.
