Excel Object Model: Application.wait

Application.wait can be used to wait (other programming languages call it sleep) until a specific time is reached.

sub main()

    msgBox "I am going to sleep for 3 seconds"
    application.wait now + timeValue("0:00:03")
    msgBox "finished."

end sub

Unfortunately, application.wait is not available in Word's application object.
