Lets start from the top.

Sleep has no return value.

You just called sleep two lines in a row for no reason.

Shutdown1 isn't a function.

I have no idea where $DelayTimer was declared.

This is just a code snippet that doesn't work on it's own and you have provided no explanation of your problem.

One thought for you.

$Delaysleep = Sleep(100)

will result in $Delaysleep=1 not 100.

so your $Delaysleep2 = $Delaysleep + 900 will result in $delaysleep2=901

Is this what you want?

[evilelf]

$DelayTimer = InputBox("Delay Time", " The Delay For Each Message Sent,60Seconds=1Minute 120Seconds=2Minutes " , "Insert Here!, In Seconds")*1000

Picea, No sir.

What im trying to do is,

find the users input and then after my sleep timer is higher then users input

we can move on.

more of a custom sleep but the user is able to still end the app right away.

If you want to be taken seriously I would recommend not having function names like "_DelayThatShit()"

[picea892]

okay, one more try.

Is this what you are looking for?

$DelayTimer = InputBox("Delay Time", " The Delay For Each Message Sent,60Seconds=1Minute 120Seconds=2Minutes " , "Insert Here!, In Seconds")*1000

I have no idea what you want. but play with this. Its never a good thing when your example doesn't work.

GUICreate ("Testing Delay")
$hLbl = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("", 2, 2, 100, 100)
$hInp = GUICtrlCreateInput ("500", 2, 104, 100, 20)
$hBtn = GUICtrlCreateButton ("Delay", 104, 104, 50, 20)
GUISetState ()
$i = 0
While 1
   Switch GUIGetMsg ()
      Case -3
         Exit
      Case $hBtn
         _Delay (GUICtrlRead ($hInp))
      Case Else
         GUICtrlSetData ($hLbl, $i)
         $i += 1
   EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _Delay ($delayTimer)
   TrayTip("*HINT*", "StandBy Starts NOW",5, 1)
   $hTimer = TimerInit ()
   Do
      Sleep (100)
   Until $DelayTimer < TimerDiff ($hTimer)
   TrayTip("", "",5, 1)
EndFunc

Just changed the Shutdown command. Works for me.

[evilelf]

Still not working but your return for 20 would be 0.02

on my calculator

i need $Delaysleep +1000 so 20000(20) returns as 20.

you should understand.

Its just not moving on to the next task.

should be this under code delay

Func _DelayThatShit()
TrayTip("*HINT*", "StandBy Starts NOW",5, 1)
$Delaysleep = 0
Do 
Sleep(100)

$msg = GUIGetMsg()
Select
Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
Exit 0
Case $msg = $Button_Stop
Shutdown1()
EndSelect
$Delaysleep = $Delaysleep +1000

Until $DelayTimer < $Delaysleep/100;;;;;;;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
EndFunc

Hope you understand it

Its my app and people arnt going to see it, so its whatever.

Yes my bad it has a funky name but its my code...

I think your what im looking for, ill try this out. Thanks

Edit; Mdiesel Your code works some what the way i want it to work like, so

ill play with this more.

There are more efficient methods to code that if you'd prefer. For example, using a global variable allows you to have only one loop.

Global $bPause = False

; code here

While 1
   If $bPause then continueLoop
   ; rest of loop here
WEnd

Func _SetPaused ()
   $bPause = Not $bPause
EndFunc ; ==> _SetPaused

There are many more examples around the forum. So check them out. Also, I don't care, but any code that has the potential to offend someone is not wanted. In future, if you are going to get us to help with code, then write a seperate script, ideally as small as possible, that outlines the problem. This code SHOULD WORK and be usable by EVERYONE. That way people like you, and want to help. Simple.

On to more general principles. sleep always returns 1, so capturing this return value is pointless. To write my code I actual just started from scratch, as I could not read yours. Code examples should be in a similar format to the one i've posted here. Claerly declared variables, simple commenting and easy layout. its easy, so do it.

I understand all of what you have said, thats why i said sorry.

i should have renamed it but,

I forgot and i just took his post as a flame.

really i should have never said a thing back and just gone on.

Thank you again and ill look into the global pause, so whenever the buttion is pressed

on my gui it will pause or exit.

Edit:

At the end of the day heres my code.
