How can I make VBscript pause for about a second ?
Is there a wait or pause command?

yup. put the following code just before the script that you want to run after the pause:
Dim PauseTime, Start
PauseTime = 1 'Set Duration
Start = Timer 'Set start time
Do While Timer < Start + PauseTime
'nothing happening
Loop
'...continue with code
Dim PauseTime, Start
PauseTime = 1 'Set Duration
Start = Timer 'Set start time
Do While Timer < Start + PauseTime
'nothing happening
Loop
'...continue with code

ukrpn,
The code from Barking Frog uses CPU time. There is a SLEEP funtion
Wscript.sleep (1000) ' In millisecond, pauses for 1 second
