Wait
The utility Wait.exe stops the batch processing for a number of seconds. For example the statement
"Wait 40" stops the batch processing for 40 seconds. If no parameters are specified, then the batch processing is
stopped for 30 seconds. This utility is especially useful in wait-loops.

Sets the application name the wait originates from when the Windows environment variable AmtAppName has not been set. |
|
<No of seconds> |

Number of seconds to wait before continuing execution of the batch or script. |
A wait(0) does not suspend a report or form, but has the side effect of processing any stop signal from the Control Centre, processing any interrupts or processing any wakeup commands.
