Sleep function Visual Basic

Question

Is there a simple sleep function in Visual Basic that doens t involve thread    Something similiar like there exists in  C  sleep 1    We also tried this code   Declare Sub Sleep Lib  kernel32   ByVal milliseconds As Long    pause for 5 seconds Sleep 5000      but it didn t work   It gave me this error      PInvokeStackImbalance was detected   Message  A call to PInvoke function    Ganzenbordspel Ganzenbordspel Spel  Sleep    has unbalanced the stack  This is   likely because the managed PInvoke   signature does not match the unmanaged   target signature  Check that the   calling convention and parameters of   the PInvoke signature match the target   unmanaged signature

Since you are asking about  NET  you should change the parameter from Long to Integer    NET s Integer is 32-bit    Classic VB s integer was only 16-bit    Declare Sub Sleep Lib  kernel32 dll   ByVal Milliseconds As Integer    Really though  the managed method isn t difficult     System Threading Thread CurrentThread Sleep 5000    Be careful when you do this   In a forms application  you block the message pump and what not  making your program to appear to have hanged   Rarely is sleep a good idea
