Hey, thanks for your reply - I wasn't expecting one this quick.

I've tried system.threadin g.thread.sleep (2000).

I also tried a ridiculous "while" statement which took the current datetime seconds value, then populated int1 with it. I populated int2 with int1 + 2 (subject to an 'if' which said that if int1 is > 57, subtract 60 from it) I then had a "while (int1<int2) {int1 = System.DateTime .Now.second}....

...with a simple problem. I have 2 buttons on my form, button1 and button2. I want the following sequence:-

1) button1 changes colour to red
2) wait 2 seconds
3) button1 changes back to gray and button2 changes to red
4) wait 2 seconds
5) button2 changes back to gray and button1 changes to red.

Please help me or I'll be forced to eat more chocolate orange biscuits.
