Pause a vbs script until user presses enter
asked on
I use the following ciode in VBS to pause a script until the user presses enter. But it looks like this only works the first time the Sub is called. Is there a way around that?
Sub pauseScript()
Dim strMessage, Input
strMessage = vbNewLine & "Press ENTER to continue."
Wscript.StdOut.Write strMessage
WScript.Echo vbNewLine & "(CTRL-C) to cancel."
Do While Not WScript.StdIn.AtEndOfLine
Input = WScript.StdIn.Read(1)
Loop
End Sub
