could you please tell me how do i go about pausing my program for 500 milliseconds and then continue?

i read thread.sleep(50) is not good as it holds up the GUI thread.

using a timer it fires a callback ..

i just want to wait 500 and then continue to the next statement.

please advise.

EDIT: i need to display a status bar message for 500 and then update the message with a different one. sorry i meant 500 not 50.
