You can call timer1.Stop() to stop the timer.

You need to set the Interval property of the timer to raise the TickEvent once after that Interval is Elapsed.

In TickEvent you can Stop the Timer or do whatever you want to do.

Try This :

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer1.Interval=5000;//to raise tick event for 5 sec's
timer1.Start();
timer1.Tick += new System.EventHandler(this.timer1_Tick);
}

protected void timer1_Tick(Object sender,EventArgs e)
{    
//Stop the timer here
timer1.Stop();    
}
