Hi,
Does anyone know how to create a delay in C#?
I dont like to use Thread.Sleep because it makes the GUI unresponsive.
Do you know of any good alternatives?

Jump to PostUse more than one thread. Then you can use thread.sleep on the thread doing the work but leave the main thread active.

What do you mean delay?
Create a new thread, put some timer on it, and show update some control like label to notify a user ther is something going on (ie: wait: seconds) by using delgate for updating a control (from another treead to ui thread).
