I need to wait 3 seconds

[NewsArchive]

Hello,

I have my program calling the installer. The installer runs so fast that
the calling program has no time to shut-down, so it says it needs a reboot.
I need to simply wait 3 seconds.

RUN('crs_update.exe /S /Q')
Do ProcedureRETURN

In my script, I'd like to simply have it wait 3 seconds before the [Install
Files] just to make sure the above program is completely closed down.

I don't want any dialogs because I am doing this automatically at night with
/S /Q

Thank you.

I see it now ... I was looking for WAIT -- when I should have looked for
SLEEP.

There is nothing Setup Builder can't do!

Robert,

Have you ever tried seeing if the program is running? Just add the Detect Active
Application function. This works perfectly for me:

Loop
Set Variable %PIMAINACTIVE% to FUNCTION:Detect Active Application("PIMain.EXE")
[File Name]
If %PIMAINACTIVE% Equals "1" Then
Display Message Box "PI SQL is still running. Please save your work
an..." -- "PI SQL Main is still running"
Else
Put INI Value(PIMain, Updated, 1) to "c:\MiscUpdate.ini"
Break Loop
End
End

That seems like a more reliable way, and is also how we do it.

What if someone has a slow machine? SLEEP might not be the right
amount of time.
