'Function To Control Pause / Wait Time Selected
Private Sub Pause(ByVal seconds As Integer)
Dim returnTime As Date = Now.AddSeconds(seconds)

1) Why the pause button and also the pause command does not exist in VB 2010 Express?
2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.

I have an app that I'm debugging and I need to pause it by clicking on a "pause" button in the development environment. I don't want to stop it programmatically, just manually to check what it is doing. I know this should be simple but I can't find a pause button anywhere on the toolbar.

okay this may be a simple answer so I apologize if it is. What I'm trying to do is when button1 is clicked for a text box to display text. Then when that same button is clicked again, that text box will display different text. Then so fourth for about another 4 times. Now I know putting this all together will create one big execution, which I don't want. I just want the application to wait until the button is clicked again to display different text.

1. Just looking for some general help on how to auto update my application via a file location path (e.g. I have a HTML file containing the current file version and the .exe file to download)
What I need is to read in the HTML file version - DONE Check file version vs HTML file stream input - DONE Replace current .exe file with new .exe file - HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS
I know I have to close the application and then replace the old exe file with the new exe file then restart the application but looking for the best/safest way this can be done
2. Basically what I want is during my Splash screen which runs for 5 seconds I want to check if a network drive is mapped.
if not, pause splash screen ask user for address of drive, map drive then un-pause splash screen and continue with load how do I check if a network drive is mapped? and how do I pause the splash screen?

I want to insert a pause between the display of one control (a button) and the display of another control (a label) on a windows form. Specifically, I want the form to load with the button (and other controls) displayed, then, after a pause of two seconds, the label to display. I have tried timers, and .Sleep() but the effect is not what I want. That is, there is a pause before all of the controls are displayed, and all (including the label) are displayed at one time. I want most of the controls (all except the label) to display normally, then, after a two second pause, I want the label to display (on the same form).

I am new to stackoverflow and the programming world. I have a basic program i'm making that will play a song in the background.
I already have that part working, it auto starts a launch of program.
However, I would like to have a button that pauses, then resumes the audio.
(I am trying to avoid making it a media player and using the media player control) Song was add as a resource.
My.Computer.Audio.Stop (works to stop it.)
But how can I implement the pause,resume? by adding a boolean or something?
(I would like pause and resume feature to be within the same button)

I have searched a lot on Google about Pausing and Resuming Downloads and I find the examples with background workers but I don't understand them and that is why I can't change the code according to my app.Is there an easy way of doing this or do I have to do it the hard way?

I cannot find the pause command in VB 2010 Express, even if I pressed Ctrl+Pause, VB opens new tab titled "No source available" In previous VB express 2005 and 2008 it was simple to edit the code while running but in VB 2010 I have to stop the code or put a break point inside the procedure which I want to edit.

I loaded up VS 2010 to work on a VB.NET project but for some reason the Run/Pause/Stop buttons are missing from the toolbar and I cannot set breakpoints. Only changes from yesterday to my system was this morning Windows was trying to install Visual Studio SP1 updates but all failed.

Okay so I have a webbrowser that navigates to 1 page and I want it to wait 5 seconds and go to the next page, then I want it to wait 5 seconds and go to the next page I want it to navigate to and so on... I tried thread.sleep but I don't want to have the form stop completely in case someone wants to minimize the form. I thought about using a timer to tell it how long it wants to stop and go.

I have a little project but ive come to an error. What it does: It goes to a site, fills a form and then submits it. But the submit is too fast. I want it to fill in info, then wait 3 seconds and then submit it.
Here is the
WebBrowser1.Document.All("user[screen_name]").SetAttribute("value", TextBox4.Text & intcount)
For Each element As HtmlElement In WebBrowser1.Document.All
If element.GetAttribute("className") = "submit button promotional" Then
element.InvokeMember("click")
End If
Next
I want it to have a little pause of 3 seconds after the intcount).

I have another problem with my bot.
[Code]...
After the 7th line I need a pause until a submit button pops up on the screen. The submit button is hidden until the getelementbyid.focus is run. I cant use webbrowser_documentcompleted because the submit only unhides itself, and I cant use Sleep() because that just stalls the whole block.

I know there is always better ways of doing things. Normally when you create a thread and I want it to pause/sleep for a set amount of time I use the <Object>.Sleep(1000) but this is frowned upon in .Net2+.

I have a VB Windows App created using VS2K10. It produces pdf files from SQL data. The SQL data is refreshed every 10 minutes pulling from a DB2 (ERP) system via a Linked Server by a SQL DTS package being run by SQL Job Agent (SQL 2005). Because of OLEDB and security issues, the data download can only be performed by a specific Windows 2003 server. (It takes from 2-3.5 minutes to download the necessary data.)
Now, if the process of creating and printing the PDF files takes longer than 6 minutes then it's still running while the next data download is starting, the result of which is that several PDF files are created blank or absent any data. I tried to execute the DTS package on demand instead of on a timer, but cannot get past the OLEDB quirks related to our iSeries (IBM server) DB2 database system. The only answer seems to be to have the client application pause at a specific time interval and resume after @ 4 minutes, but I haven't a clue as to how to do that. Before you ask, using ODBC to pull specific data from the DB2 system directly into the client is too slow to be a viable option.

I have a problem with my application "getting ahead of itself" what the problem stems from is i am manipulating a file and then using the manipulated file further along in the program, the trouble is the program is getting to the second step before the file manipulation is complete so i receive a file not found exception. The program that is doing the manipulation has an OnEnd sub routine and i have been looking at event handlers to try and figure out how i can hold up the application until the On End routine is fired. But i have been trying this to no avail, is there an example i can have that waits for an event to be fired?

Currently I'm using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000) to let my app pause/sleep for some time. This works great but I can't open my app anymore when it's sleeping and it uses about 25% of my CPU. I guess there must be a better way to do this. I also tried using a timer but that didn't work out to well for me..

I would like some information on pausing my application until a file with a certain extension has been created. What hapens is, my application creates an input file that is sent to an external app that returns a file with a different file extension. In my application i then extract data from this new file.I was thinking i could use a timer to "hold up" my app, but then i started reading about event handlers and catchers. What i have tried is using an If FileExists loop but i get a file not found exception. How should i use the file create event? By looking in the folder and "waiting" for the file to be created?
