Can I call some 'wait' function in VBA?

[Lüko Willms]

The subject line is my question ...

My event-triggered procedure "Document_New" needs to wait for
another Application to complete its work setting Document-Variables.

Instead of just looping while waiting for this process to complete,
and stealing time from that other Application, I want to cede the time
to the system, by some "wait" function, with the time to wait in
seconds resp. milliseconds.

Any hint?

The "shell" function doesn't help since it just starts another,
asynchronoulsy running process in parallell. No wait.


Yours,

Any hint?

Maybe. But first, let me ask you a question...

Have you already gotten an answer anywhere else you posted this?
