a unsupported feature error problem for help

[ariesxyg]

hi all:
i have been trapped for a VHDL problem.
it look like very simple, but i really can't fix it. please give me a
hand.
the problem is: i want a process wait a constant period about 100000ns.
i write
" wait for 100000ns; "
but it give me error like,
" unsupported feature error: condition clause and timeout clause
together in a wait statment is not support "

my whole code is:

LIBRARY ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
use ieee.std_logic_unsigned.all;
use ieee.std_logic_arith.all;

ENTITY decode1 IS
PORT(
clk, hold, data0, data1 : in std_logic;
UID : OUT STD_LOGIC;
BIT0_STATE : OUT STD_LOGIC;
BIT25_STATE : OUT STD_LOGIC);
END decode1;

ARCHITECTURE a OF decode1 IS

BEGIN

PROCESS(clk)
BEGIN
if hold = '0' then
if (clk'event and clk='0') then
if data0 = '0' then BIT0_STATE <= '0';
elsif data1 = '0' then BIT0_STATE <= '1';
end if;
end if;
end if;
end process;

PROCESS(clk)

BEGIN
if hold = '0' then
wait for 100000 ns;
if (clk'event and clk='0') then
if data0 = '0' then uid <= '0';
elsif data1 = '0' then uid <= '1';
end if;
end if;
end if;
end process;

PROCESS(clk)

BEGIN
if hold = '0' then
wait for 8400000 ns;
if (clk'event and clk='0') then
if data0 = '0' then BIT25_STATE <= '0';
elsif data1 = '0' then BIT25_STATE <= '1';
end if;
end if;
end if;
end process;
END a;

[...]

PROCESS(clk)

BEGIN

if data0 = '0' then uid <= '0';
elsif data1 = '0' then uid <= '1';

end process;

You cannot have a wait statement in a process with sensitivity list.

"i want a process to wait a constant period about 100000ns"
While "WAIT FOR some_time_period" will work for simulation, it will
not be synthesized into hardware. You will need a clock and a counter.
