Hey, I was wondering how you make it like pause. I know how to make it so a message pops up of course thats basic... but can you make it like pause a few seconds before the message pops up? Like time it? Thanks.

Yea, at the end of the code where you want it to pause write something like this: Make sure to create a timer and put this code in the timer: The reason you set the interval to 3000 and then back to 0 is because when a timer's interval is set to 0 it is the same as being disabled. This also allows you to press the command button more than once. This also works with the timer.enabled property but then you have to set the timer to be disabled on startup rather than its default enabled.

I'm using Visual C#... isnt that Visual Basic,...

Yeah that was vb

ahh well I can use VB too Thanks.

Command1_click()
Timer1.Interval = 3000 '(This is 3 seconds because its in milliseconds)
End Sub

Make sure to create a timer and put this code in the timer:

Code: Select all

Timer1_Timer()
Msgbox "3 seconds have passed"
Timer1.interval = 0
End Sub
