Why, exactly, do you need to pass an extra parameter to a Timer Tic EventHandler ? Please show your code for the Timer.

You don't need to pass any additional information to the Timer Tick event handler: just declare the variable at class level within your form and access it normally - it will work exactly like any other class field.

We have no idea what you are actually doing. Unless you show your actual source code, you will not get much help. Use the Improve Question link above and put your source code into your question.

Did you declare the variable as part of the class
private int picture number = 0;
Or á part of the tick event handler
private void Timer_TickEvent(...)
{
int picture number = 0;
...
}

It's simple. You can't pass any additional data in the Time Tick event. You have to keep track of this additional data outside the event. But, since we have no idea what you're code looks like, it's impossible to tell you what you should be doing instead.
