That depends entirely on how your game works.... are you using a timer control for your loop? Are you just doing a big ass while loop and putting your code in that? The code for the pause button will differ based on your method of implementation.

in your pause button just do:

time1.enabled = false

frozie, frozie, frozie.... I know you only have four posts, but if you have been reading these forums, I'm sure by now, you know not to necropost like this!!! Shame, shame, shame on you...

Now, there are a couple of ways you can do this under one button...

If Timer1.Enable = True Then
  Timer1.Enabled = False
Else
  Timer1.Enabled = True
End If

or

Timer1.Enabled = Not Timer1.Enabled

Good Luck
