Yes, I did the same test on Linux, and it works there as well. Sub NowTest Dim s As String s = 1.Now() Wait(2000) s = s CHR$(10) 2.Now() MsgBox s End Sub Can you try running this method, and, then, after that works, use similar code in your event handler to print a message

Oh, and you can use GetSystemTicks() to return the number of system ticks, which should be a better judge of when something occurred. Also, if Wait does not work, you can always use a busy wait based either on now or GetSystemTicks. On 04/04/2014 03:23 AM, Fernand Vanrie wrote: Noel ,

Not sure if my recollections are correct, but I don't believe either DOS (before 2.x) or the DOS version of Word were written by Microsoft. I seem to recall that both were purchased and re-branded. Word for MS-DOS was typical of the approach Microsoft would perfect over many subsequent years. Its
