A tick is based upon the time interval.
For example you set the timer to poll every 1 second.

After 1 second elapsed,
tick
After 2 seconds,
tick

Is this what you are asking?

yeah figured that out...but how to display it in a textbox is my problem...

[dickersonka]

assuming you have a textbox named tbCount

inside the tick event, or a method you call from it

Create a variable named count, on each tick call:

int count = 0;

void timer_Tick(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
count++;
this.tbCount.Text = count.ToString();
}
