Making an application wait for a specified period of time
I have an application that I would like to wait for a specified period of time before continuing on. During this time I want events to be allowed to occur and I do not want 100% cpu usage. I have tired using an application.doevents in a loop which causes 100% CPU usage and I have tried a thread.sleep which seems to make it so that events do not fire. Any other suggestions?

If you don't want a polling loop then use a Timer() control...
