Guys, thanks for your responses.......i do understand that an hour glas
is the accepted way but my problem is this.......while updating all 2
sheets the mouse pointer flickers and just before it changes sheet t
update the next the mousepointer stops being an hourglass and becomes
pointer again for about 10secs allowing the user to select cells or go
forbid click cancel or exit during the autoclose (for some reason i
you select another application or say taskbar, then it interrupts th
macro and it ends prematurely!).

This is why i want to hide the mouse button!.....but if you hav
another solution im willing to give it a go!

Simo
