Adding a 15 second pause in a VB Script 1

[DrSeussFreak]

I am running a script, and between steps

Dim lStart
Set lStart=createobject("wscript.shell")
lStart.run "D:\dba_util\scripts\listener_start.bat"
set lStart=Nothing

and

Dim lCheck
Set lCheck=createobject("wscript.shell")
lCheck.run "D:\dba_util\scripts\listener_check.bat"
set lCheck=nothing

I need a 15 second pause.

WScript.Sleep 15000 ' pause for 15 seconds

Or if you want your script to wait

lStart.run "D:\dba_util\scripts\listener_start.bat", 0, True
' 0 hides the DOS window; True tells it to wait before proceeding.

yeah, why are you waiting? are you going off to make a cup of coffee?

no, I am starting/stopping/restarting/checking oracle services. They can take some time.
