Question HELP NEEDED --- how to make form to wait for some time

[rocky19]

I am trying to fetch some specific data from a file which is updated frequently. So, i am trying to make my form wait till i get a particular data.

i am using
Threading.Thread.Sleep(10000)
to wait and again check the data.

but form is getting hanged (showing NOT RESPONDING)

How can i make my form to wait for some time?

You can use Timer (from Toolbox).
