what do you mean by pause?

if you mean delay during program execution then this might help:

Sub Delay(dblSecs As Double)
Const OneSec As Double = 1# / (1440# * 60#)
Dim dblWaitTil As Date

dblWaitTil = Now + OneSec * dblSecs
Do Until Now > dblWaitTil
DoEvents ' Allow windows messages to be processed
Loop

End Sub
