I'm trying to write a simple VB app. that copies a file then opens it. I call a function that does all this but I want to some how integrate a simple timer that will wait 5 seconds, then copy the file, wait another 2 seconds, then open the file. Can anyone help me!?!? If you need more detail about the app I can give it to you. Thanks! Any help appreciated.
