    Actually I just used this:
    Code:
     System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);

    100 Milliseconds don't make a second. Try 1000.

    She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.

    Sometimes you might not want to Sleep for a second. Sometimes you just want to sleep enough not to tax the processor, which is usually 100ms or lower.
