Tom,
From the Reflection 8.0 Basic Editor help:
Syntax object.Wait HowLong, [Options]
Description
Waits for the specified period of time. Incoming data is processed during
the wait.
When waiting from an external application (such as stand-alone Visual
Basic), the ProcessDatacomm property should be set to False to prevent
Reflection from reading and processing characters between calls to
Reflection methods.
The following statement instructs Reflection to wait for 30 seconds,
allowing keystrokes during the wait:
Session.Wait "30", rcAllowKeystrokes
Arguments
HowLong Argument Type: String
Required
Specifies the amount of time to wait. The string is
specified in HH:MM:SS.hh format.
Options Argument Type: Enumeration
Optional
Specifies additional, non-default behavior for the method.
The possible values are:
rcAllowKeystrokes
Specifies that the user is allowed to enter
keystrokes in the terminal window during the wait.
rcNoDisplay
Specifies that incoming characters should not be
displayed in Reflection's terminal window during the wait.
You can combine the two options using the addition operator
(+): rcAllowKeystrokes + rcNoDisplay.
