Hi,

You could use System.Threading to do it.
Its very simple and its very sweet too ;-)

Add namespace to your project like

C#

using System.Threading;

If you want to clear it in Button Click event then use the below code

C#

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           Thread.Sleep(1200); //Delay for 1200 milliseconds.
           Label1.Text = "";
       }

Hope this helps you a bit.

Regards,
RK

does it delay all the statements execution or the statement below it

in a event

Member 10468587 21-Dec-13 4:04am

protected void Btnclear_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Thread.Sleep(10);
lblmessage.Text = "";
BtnUpdate.Visible = false;
BtnSave.Visible = true;
clear();
}

its not working..

How many seconds you want to delay? 10 milliseconds is too low for delay atleast try to give 1000 instead of 10

Member 10468587 21-Dec-13 7:04am

i had given 1000 earlier but the msg is not gettin cleared...

i just kept on reducing the value...

in order to check it
but even for 10 ms its not getting cleared

Member 10468587 21-Dec-13 7:26am
