Alert message - Pause for loop

Hi,
I am looping through a datatable. For each row in the datatable, after executing set of commands, I want an alert message to be displayed. I am using thread.sleep(5000). It does not display the message till it completes the for loop. Once the for loop completes, it displays all the messages one after another.

Is there a way to pause the loop, display message and the ncontinue the loop?

Thank you.


for i =0 to dt.rows.count -1 'execute my code here If Not (closerid = 0) Then RadAjaxManager1.Alert(lastNm & ", " & firstNm & " is assigned to " & rName) Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000) ObjSched.BLL_Updatemytable(closerid, newpid) End If Next
