Default pause in script

Although if this is truly script code (VBScript) none of the Win32 API calls
can be used.

I just want to add a 5 second pause in my script. Can someone point me to
some sample code - I couldn't find the command?


This is what I use:
Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
and then
Sleep 5000 ' Sleep 5 seconds

I pondered that, too. But the name of this newsgroup is
microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba and the original message wasn't
crossposted, so I thought it might help.

Then that´s VBScript and you can´t use Win32 API calls as Ken mentioned.

The WSH has a sleep method that you can use.
