平时我们写程序常常会要用到延时函数,一般的做法是用Timer控件,要么就是使用Sleep函数
这两种方法似乎都有自身的不足之处,这里贴一个老外(牛人)写的延时类,可以做到延时不影响
主程序运行(无负担延时)
类模块源代码如下:
VERSION 1.0 CLASS
BEGIN
MultiUse = -1 'True
Persistable = 0 'NotPersistable
DataBindingBehavior = 0 'vbNone
DataSourceBehavior = 0 'vbNone
MTSTransactionMode = 0 'NotAnMTSObject
END

'**************************************
' Name: clsWaitableTimer
'
' Description: This class encapsulate the WaitableTimer API functions to
' put the thread of your application to Sleep for a period of time.
' The benefit of a Waitable timer to the Sleep API is that your
' application will still be responsive to events, where Sleep
' will freeze your application for the set interval.
'
' Example: 'This is an example for idling your application
' Private mobjWaitTimer As clsWaitableTimer
' Private Sub RunProcess()
' Set mobjWaitTimer = New clsWaitableTimer
' Do
' If mbWorkToDo Then
' Call ProcessWork()
' Else
' mobjWaitTimer.Wait(5000) 'Wait for 5 seconds
' End If
' Loop Until Not mbStop
' Set mobjWaitTimer = nothing
' End Sub
