Hi All......
If someone would be so kind.......how can this code be modified to "wait"
the number of seconds corresponding to the value in A1?

Application.Wait Now() + 0.000005787037

TIA

Hi All..........

Never mind.......I always get smarter as soon as I post a question....

Application.Wait Now() + Range("a1").Value / 86400

Try this:
Application.Wait Now() + Range("A1").Value

I would not do it that way. YMMV.

Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
....
Sleep Range("A1").Value*1000 ' Untested
 
Thanks for the comeback Walter, but the other way works just fine, once I
got it straightened out........do you see some hidden danger with this
method?

Not at all! It just makes more sense to me to have code which waits for
two seconds rather that for two seconds from now. (I now they're the
same thing.) As I said, YMMV.
