        DateTime alarmTime;


        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
            tp.Sätt(dt.Hour, dt.Minute, dt.Second);
            a.Text = tp.ToString();

        }

        private void textBox3_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void checkBox2_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {


        }

        private void label1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            tp.Tick();
            a.Text = tp.ToString();


        }



        private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            alarmTime = new DateTime(2010, 9, 25, 10, 36, 00, 00);  
            
        }

        private void button4_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            alarmTimer.Enabled = true;
        }


        private void alarmTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(-2) < alarmTime && DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(2) > alarmTime)  
            {
                alarmTimer.Enabled = false;

Here is the way I would handle it...

1. Store the times of the alarm in a collection(List<DateTime>).
2. Sort the collection.
3. Each time the Tick event happens, check the first element in the collection to see if the current time (DateTime.Now) is greater than the time of that element. If it is, sound the alarm, and remove that time from the collection.

Thx is it possible to modify my code so i can us hour, minute and seconds instead of all the date and time thing i wrote?

You should be able to use the TimeOfDay property for that. It's a TimeSpan object, so you should be able to check it the current date's TimeOfDay is greater than the specified date's TimeOfDay.

well after a couple of days i ended up writing this code.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Media;



namespace WindowsFormsApplication7
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        tidpunkt tp = new tidpunkt();


        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            
            DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
            tp.Sätt(dt.Hour, dt.Minute, dt.Second);
            a.Text = tp.ToString();
            _soundplayer = new SoundPlayer("redalert.wav");
         }

        private SoundPlayer _soundplayer;
    
         
        


        private TimeSpan _LastAlarm;

        private List<TimeSpan> _Alarms = new List<TimeSpan>()
{
  new TimeSpan(09, 0, 0), 
  new TimeSpan(11, 0, 0), 
  new TimeSpan(12, 0, 0), 
  new TimeSpan(14, 0, 0), 
  new TimeSpan(16, 0, 0) 
};
         
        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {


        }

        private void label1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            tp.Tick();
            a.Text = tp.ToString();

            TimeSpan now = DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay;
            TimeSpan current = new TimeSpan(now.Hours, now.Minutes, 0);// only compare hours and minutes 
            if ((_LastAlarm != current) && (_Alarms.Contains(current)))
            {
                _LastAlarm = current;
                _soundplayer.Play();
                MessageBox.Show("Alarm!!!" + DateTime.Now);
                
         }
        }
      

       


        private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
        {

        }

    }
}
