How to make an application "sleep"?

Postby don lowenstein » Thu Mar 23, 2006 3:48 pm

What is the best way to make an application "Sleep" for a specified time interval?

In xbase there was a Sleep() function.

I'm aware of "inkey()"

Is there a "best" way to make the process inactive for a time period.

Thanks.
