Hi,

For your first question.
It's working normal because you put it in the Timer Event.
That means every second the timer execute you'll have an item added into the Listbox.

What you can do is change the timer interval to the executiontime you need or put it into a Button event instead of timer.

For your second question, try this:

TextBox1.Text = Date.Now.DayOfWeek.ToString
