    1) see your other thread...... you have done this already.

    2) if you are building a win32 console app then use Sleep(x) where x is the number of milliseconds you wish to pause for. The include file is windows.h

    3)remove("filename") in cstdio or stdio.h
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
