WScript.sleep - 2/5/2003 1:36:53 PM

I have one html file and about 10 .vbs files which implement the html file. I am trying to get the vbscript to pause until another function is finished using the wscript.sleep function. When I run the following code, it errors out and says object needed: Wscript.
for i = 0 to 15
SomeFunction()
wscript.sleep 1000
next

Does anyone have any ideas??
Thanks in advance

If the "SomeFunction()" is another script, you can execute it via the:

bolWaitOnReturn = True
Set objShell = CreateObject(WScript.Shell)
returnCode = objShell.Run(your_script, parameters, bolWaitOnReturn)

Now the script waits for your_script to finish (only if bolWaitsOnReturn is "True") and then goes on with further command execution. Hope it helps.
