You will need to pass a reference to the timer to the other form in order to
access the timer. If you are showing the 2nd form from the 1st form, you
can add a property of type 'Timer' to your 2nd form and set this property
before showing the form:

\\\
Dim f As New Form2()
f.TheTimer = Me.Timer1
f.Show()
///

Let's make it clear:

I want to set the timer on the first form from the second form.

Thanks for your help.
