Thanks PHV,

I have tried that but is does not seem to work, it just pass without sleeping

I checked again and the loop only runs one time when I insert WScript.Sleep 100 last in the loop.

that's because the time is so short, you may not notice it.
10 times 100 mili-second amounts to one second. that's all you see.
you may try this:

for i = 1 to 10
    msgbox "going to sleep"
    wscript.sleet 100
    msgbox "coming out of sleep"

next

you will see that it stleeps 10 times for a duration of 100 ms.
