Description: TTimerIterate is different than TTimer. 
             TTimerIterate executes (if enabled) its
             OnTimer event ONLY a specifed number of 
             times. When done, it then fires another 
             special event and disables itself.

             Why is this cool? If you wish to display
             a dialog for a set number of seconds then
             close the dialog, then this component is 
             perfect.     

             TTimerIterate adds ONE property and ONE event to
             the standard TTimer object.

             The property is:

             * NumTicks { The OnTimer Event will Fire }
                        { this many times.            }            

             The Event is:

             * OnLastTick { Fires immediatly following }
                          { the last OnTimer           }

Instructions: 1. Install component (RTFM)
              2. Drop on form.
              3. Set NumTicks property to a value > 0.
              4. Put code in the OnTimer method.
              5. Put code in the OnLastTick method.
              6. Run program.

              The OnTimer method will executes NumTicks times
              and then execute the OnLastTick event and then
              disable itself. 
              
Install Note: TTimerIterate is a Non-Visual component that 
              that is a subclassed imediate child class of
              Delphi's stock TTimer object. This thus requires
              ExtCtrls.pas or ExtCtrls.dcu to be available for
              this components installation and program inclusion.

              The point is Timerit.pas USES Extctrls.pas.
