TextOut prints a little late?

Inside a function I have a Sleep() in between 2 TextOut() calls. When
I call the 1st one I expect it to print immediately before Sleep() is
executed; but instead I get the output of both calls at the same time
after the Slee() and after the funtion has exited...!

Why does this happen?

What is the proper way to print immediately?
