Abe Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Hello, Im kinda new to scripting, Ive been looking for a list of codes for the program, but no avail. Anyways, How do I get a program to start another program after a pre-determined period of time? Thanks for help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omikron48 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Look up Run or RunWait, and Sleep in the help file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Look at the Sleep() and Run() functions in the help file. I am curious though why you want sleep. Many new script writers might use this because they want it to happen after something else happens. Usually though there is a better way to determine if something else has happened, or another way to determine when a program should run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
