  You could also use DosStartTimer if you want an event semaphore to be
  posted on a regular basis.

  If you are worried about lost events, then use the `pulPostCnt'
  parameter to DosResetEventSem.

  Also, rather than incrementing a counter and only performing any
  action every 100 events (which requires the thread to iterate over the
  loop code unnecessarily 99 times), why not simply multiply the timer
  delay interval by 100 ?

  On the other hand, why are you using a timer to trigger an event
  semaphore that kicks a thread into life in the first place.  Why not
  just put a DosSleep() call into the loop in your thread ?  Then you
  won't need either the timer or the semaphore.
