Implementing a "wait" function in VB
Here注释:s a simple way of implementing an aclearcase/" target="_blank" >ccurate "wait" function in VB.
Add a timer called timer1 to a form. Set its Interval property to 0 and it注释:s enabled property to FALSE.
Add two labels (label1 and label2) and a command button (command1) to the form.
Add the following subroutine and Timer1 event code:
Public Sub Wait(seconds)
注释:-- Turn timer on
Timer1.Enabled = True
注释:-- Set Timer Interval
Me.Timer1.Interval = 1000 * seconds
While Me.Timer1.Interval > 0
DoEvents
Wend
注释:-- Turn timer off
Timer1.Enabled = False
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Timer1.Interval = 0
End Sub
That注释:s it! Use the Wait function anywhere a delay is required, for example:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Label1.Caption = Now
Wait (5)
Label2.Caption = Now
End Sub
