Pausing VB

[pds]

A vb program starts. It runs through its calculations, and sometime at a certain arbitrary point the program pauses for a few seconds, say 2.5, and then continues until it finishes.

Is there a way to do this?

Copy this into a module and call it by Sleep 2000
The above would 'pause' the app for 2 seconds

Option Explicit

Public Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

Although the sleep function would be my first choice, you could also use the Timer function. There should be plenty of help available in VB for this method.
