RE: script sleep command
Can you elaborate as to what a 'wait command' is?

RE: script sleep command
You should never use sleep in any program (not just scripts), including VB6 (which is probably where you got the idea from).

Also, there are especially commands and methods to instructs MS Agent to wait and do other stuff.

Also, if you use the speak commad, it already should say the entire text before it does anything else.


----------

As said before, never ever use a sleep command in code.

;)

Here is a script I've made for someone. It was originally posted in another thread with much more detailed explanation, but unfortunatly the guy who requested this has removed that thread...

PS: there are also some other scripts on the forums which use MS Agent, so you could search for those too and take a look at them (search on "agent").
