RE: NEWBIE Question: LUA wait() function?

["Rolf" <rb@...>]

Jeff,
I have never used Wscript and know nothing about it.
Anyway, I tried it almost exactly as you suggested:

Function test()
  local vb="test.vbs"
  local f=io.open(vb)
  f:write("WScript.Sleep(1000)\n")
  f:close()
  for i=1,10 do
    msgbox("Waiting")
    io.flush()
    os.execute(vb)
  end
end

However, nothing happened when running test()...?
