Yes use the sleep command. The sleep.exe file can be found in I believe the NT4 Resource Kit.

thanks... i also found another way... using ping! i can do somethign like

ping -n 10 127.0.0.1>NUL

its not an exact way of delaying a .bat file, but if all i need is to delay the .bat file just for a few seconds, then this will work well enough.
