Pausing the application

I am trying to develop an application which needs to
execute particular every 30 seconds. How can I achieve
that. Please help.

Thank you

Hmm if it is a GUI application and this is called inside the UI thread this
is going to be one really unresponsive application.
It can be used only to pouse a worker thread or with Console applications.

Hi,
Real solution cannot be given unless we know more about the application.
I already gave my advice.
To make the application *console* type or isolate the working part in
designated worker thread and then use
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(180000) as you said.
In my prevoius post my intention was to highlight some potential problems
not to say that the idea is not good.

I'd use a timer and simply set the enabled flags of the=20
controls you want disabled to false until the timer says=20
to go again.
