Default Delay to startup excel spreadsheet

Hi all,

I have an excel spreadsheet that starts up from the start-up folder. The
problem is that it starts up before another program does that imports DDE
data into the spreadsheet. This would then cause the spreadsheet to hang. Is
it possible to place a delay statement in the start-up line that would delay
the excel spreadsheet for 5 or 10 seconds.

Thanks for the help.
