I'm not sure that I understand you correct, but the "VC.Pause" action pause a command.

Hi colboyxx,

It is not clear what you want.  Probably you are not quite clear yet on the terminology, so your question could mean a lot of different things...  Anyway, try to provide more information about what you are trying to accomplish so we can try to help.

If you just want to do a short pause between actions you can use VC.Pause

Ok sorry guys, well when I ask VC for the weather it starts to tell me the forecast, but towards the end it starts to pick up its own voice as it tells me the weather, I wondered if I could set some kind of delay so she finishes the forecast before she moves on to the next command,

What do you mean by "next command" ?

If VC is hearing its own TTS then you are going to have endless problems.  You need to reevaluate your speaker / microphone setup.

If you want you can turn VC off, then use TTS.SpeakSync, then turn VC back on.

I think you mean with next "command" next "action" - so change each TTS.Speak "action" in your command with a TTS.SpeakSync "action". This action allowed VC to speak finish the text in this action before it execute the next "action" in you command.

short explanation:
A command in VC is the "lightning" symbol in the command tree and a command can contains one or many "actions".

I hope this help
