subroutine

Is there a way to stop other subs from running while in a separate sub.

for instance say your in the sub CreateNumber()

and the subs are setup like

CreateNumber()
AddNumber()
DeleteNumber()

Is there a way to be in CreateNumber() and call a function to stop AddNumber from running after creaetNumber() is finished? i just want my program to sit there to wait for an event to happen.
