  1) Does C# / .NET have timers I'd like to setup a timer so that a function is called every XX minutes.

  Yes, you'll find timers in System.Timers, System.Threading and System.Windows.Forms. The appropriate class depends on your usage. I.e. the one in System.Windows.Forms is optimized for usage in Windows Form apps.

  2) How can I split a string containing linebreaks into an array (or any other object) For example let's say I have "Hello<CR>To the world!<CR>" then I'd like a[0] = "Hello" and a[1] = "To the world!"

  Yes, you can use the string.Split() method for this purpose.

  3) Does C# / .NET have any simple built-in HTTP servers I'd like my application to have a built-in webserver for remote configuration (sort of like a router configuration web server)

  there's no webserver in the .NET Framework classes used in C#. There is .NET Remoting that you can use for this purpose. Alternatively, you can take the sourcecode of Cassini. This is the basis for the built-in web server used in Visual Studio Web Developer, part of Visual Studio 2005.

  hi,

  1) yes there are timers, in tools you will find it , add it to the form , go to properties then enable it , and set the intervals, i don't remember but by code you can make something like this, its a form has a lable to be used as digital watch

  public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { Timer myTimer = new Timer(); myTimer.Interval = 1000; myTimer.Enabled = true; myTimer.Start(); myTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(myTimer_Tick); } void myTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(); } }

  2) yes you can use string.split method

  string hello = "Hello\rTo the world!\r "; string[] parts = hello.Split('\r');

  3) i don't know if there is something like this but i don't think so , System.net namespace has lots of classes that may help you to build your own server App,

  search this forum for remote or remoting you will find lots of examples or you may consider to ask about it in this forum http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx ForumID=40&SiteID=1

  hope this helps
