How do I get mathematics functions

  It's because you are still inside the method. label1.Text has been changed but the event to display the change will not be executed until the method exits and returns to the message loop.

  You can make it handle events with:

  Application.DoEvents();

  put that before sleeping, bearing in mind it will execute all events, which could include another button press if you are not careful.

  You have the Math class
  http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/system.math.aspx

  sleep() is a method on the Thread class, Thread.Sleep()

  I had just discovered how to use the Maths functions, for example....

  x = Math.Log(x);

  But as much as I tried I could not find the key to Sleep() but now you have shown me. For example a one second delay......

  System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);

  It did not occur to me to try System.Threading infront of it. Many thanks for your help.

  I have just tried the code below following a button press.......

  label1.Text = "Start";

  System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(4000);

  label2.Text = "End";

  I click on the button to start the sequence but nothing happens for 4 seconds then both Start and End are displayed. Can you tell me how to display Start then have a 4 second delay before End is displayed. Thanks.
