Pausing a script

noob here...

I am trying to cause a script to pause for a bit, and while I have tried <b>Wscript.Sleep 1000</b>, the script bugs out and says :

<b>Microsoft VBScript runtime error - Object required: 'WScript'</b>

I'm assuming that the answer is pretty simple, but... I'm a noob... so nothing is simple for me right now.

Any ideas?
