A timer is very useful in visual basic. It can be used to repeat events again and again at set intervals. Using other triggers, such as user inputs or button clicks, or even other timers, the timer can be turned off/on, and other properties such as the timer interval can be changed. It is a key feature of the language.
Visual Basic Controls work on Visual Studio for Visual Basic and Applications that made by Visual Basic.
It is not hidden, it simply does not have a visual runtime component for no other reason than that it does not require one. A timer is defined by what occurs when the timeout elapses -- not what happens while the timer is counting. If you require a visual aspect you are free to create one but there's no point in creating a visual component that, in the vast majority of cases, would be completely superfluous.
answer
' Disable the timer tmrMyTimer.Enabled = False ' in milliseconds, you can remove this line if you do not want to change the ' internval from the original setting tmrMyTimer.Interval = NewInterval ' Enable the timer again tmrMyTimer.Enabled = True

deleting control
Yes, in Visual Basic 6.0, you can call an event procedure for a timer from an event procedure for a command button. You would typically invoke the timer's event handler directly within the command button's click event. For example, you can call the timer's event routine by simply using its name, allowing you to execute the timer's code when the button is clicked. Just ensure that the timer is enabled if its functionality depends on it.
' Disable the timer tmrMyTimer.Enabled = False ' in milliseconds, you can remove this line if you do not want to change the ' internval from the original setting tmrMyTimer.Interval = NewInterval ' Enable the timer again tmrMyTimer.Enabled = True

the control appear on the form
The timer object or any object derived from a timer object. However, you can also create your own objects with a tick event. How that event is actually triggered is entirely up to you.
It is user interface Ex Button, Checkbox, Label
That would depend on wich control you are talking about. But every control has to have the property: "(Name)", and most of them have "Disabled" and "visible".
Visual Basic was started in 1991.
