There are at least two Timer classes, System.Windows.Forms.Timer and
System.Threading.Timer.

I suppose you're using the System.Windows.Forms one. Add "Imports
System.Windows.Forms" at the top of the file, and if you're compiling on the
command line add -r:System.Windows.Forms.dll to the compiler arguments.

If you get an error about not finding System.Windows.Forms.dll, you need to
install the winforms package (the exact name depends on your distro).
