If you can set you time format to include milliseconds then this could be 
amended accordingly, I think:

-- wait for batch file to fully write to disc before accessing...

SET VAR v1 TIME = NULL -- Start time of pause

SET VAR v2 INTEGER = NULL -- Number of seconds passed

SET VAR v1 = .#TIME -- Actual start time

SET VAR v2 = 0 -- Seconds passed

WHILE v2 < 4 THEN -- Wait for 3 seconds

SET VAR v2 = (.#TIME - .v1) -- Do calculation

ENDWHILE -- Continue when all time passed

Subject: [RBASE-L] - PAUSE for less than one second.

I want to pause each time through a loop, but only for 250 milliseconds (a 
quarter second).


PAUSE FOR works fine for whole numbers of seconds.  Is there any way to pause 
for something shorter than a second?
