Stop a timer that triggers progress bar

Question

This timer triggers a progress bar. The goal is to stop the timer (and therefore the progress bar) when a label changes its text.
However, the timer goes on for ages and the progress bar keeps going until it reaches 100%. The timer never stops, it just that the progress bar can't go any further.
In other words,
1. How do you stop the timer below?
2. How do you make this timer below to listen to other events such as threads terminated or label text change?
Feel free to tweak around the code below so I can see what you mean. I learn by example.
Thanks in advance,
  int i = 0 ;
  public void timer2 ()
    Timer t2 = new Timer ( 10000, new ActionListener () //10 seconds
      public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent event )
        progressBar.setValue ( i ) ;
        progressBar.setStringPainted ( true ) ;
        i++ ;
    t2.start () ;
    if ( lblStatus.getText ().equals ( "CD succesfully created" ) ) {
      i = 100 ;
      progressBar.setValue ( i ) ;
      progressBar.setStringPainted ( true ) ;
      t2.stop () ;
  }

Answer 1

Thanks John. You can tell I'm a newbie huh.
Where do I put the property listener for the label?
If I put the listener inside the timer I get a compilation error saying that an "identifier is expected beginning at 'CD successfully completed' "
int i = 0 ;
  public void timer3 ()
    Timer t3 = new Timer ( 5000, new ActionListener () //5 seconds
       public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent event )
        progressBar.setValue ( i ) ;
        progressBar.setStringPainted ( true ) ;
        i++ ;
    t3.start () ;
   lblStatus.addPropertyChangeListener("CD successfully completed", new PropertyChangeListener() {
                           public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt) {
                                   t3.stop();
                   } );if I put the property listener inside, I get a different error "the variable t3 is being accessed from within inner class and that it needs to be declared final."
  int i = 0 ;
  public void timer3 ()
    Timer t3 = new Timer ( 5000, new ActionListener () //5 seconds
       public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent event )
        lblStatus.addPropertyChangeListener("CD successfully completed", new PropertyChangeListener() {
                         public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt) {
                                 t3.stop();
        progressBar.setValue ( i ) ;
        progressBar.setStringPainted ( true ) ;
        i++ ;
    t3.start () ;
