3种延时方法，那种好一些？请大家研究一下。（附代码）

[irians]

第一种方法：
'在一个窗体中
'一个按纽 command1
'////////////////
Dim delay As Integer

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Timer1.Enabled = True
wait (5)
MsgBox "over"
Timer1.Enabled = False
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
delay = delay + 1
End Sub
Private Function wait(ByVal aaa As Integer)
Do While delay < aaa
DoEvents
Loop
delay = 0
End Function



第二种方法
'在一个窗体中
'两个按纽 command1，command2
'////////////////

Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
Private Declare Function SleepEx Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long, ByVal bAlertable As Long) As Long

'用: Sleep 2000
'或：Sleep 2000,false(不能被唤醒)
' Sleep 2000,True(可被唤醒)

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Sleep 5000
MsgBox "over"
End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
SleepEx 5000, True
MsgBox "over"
End Sub






第三种方法：


'在一个窗体中
'一个按纽 command1
'////////////////
Option Explicit

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Wait (5)
MsgBox "over"
End Sub

第一种方法我在2000下测试时发现资源占用是100%，以前我一直用第一种方法。
另外，巴顿先生， 如果我的程序在sleep时是隐藏的（form1.hide），这样有问题吗?

[fraser01]

这三种方法都不错，具体要看程序执行的情况。
就我个人而言，如果写代码我愿意用第一种。
如果就其它而言（不要我写代码）我愿意用第三种。

[irians]

没人看下吗？

[Bardo]

定时控件在程序调试不可控制。
Sleep 则会使程序不响应，这很不好！！！！
第三种是MSDN中提供的也是推荐的。
弱点在时间不精确，如果是几分钟，则可以。但其最大的长处是可用于无窗体无界面的（如ActiveX Exe) 程序！！！！
