How to Stop Your Program For a Period of Time

This procedure will let your programs process Windows messages. The only thing is that this function may stop only this procedure while not stopping the rest :-)

var
  dtNow: TDateTime;
begin
  { Before pause }
  dtNow := Now;
  repeat
    Application.ProcessMessages; { Process Windows messages }
  until dtNow + 5 / SecsPerDay < Now; { Pause for 5 seconds }
  { After pause }
end;
