Okay, here's a stupid question. How do I load the form now? I tried to
just Label1.Show but it didn't work.

Try again.
Try this approach,
Create a userform with the 'splash' details
Instead of running the macro, load the form and have the form run the
macro
in it's Activate event.
When the macro completes, unload the form programmatically.
Something like
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
myMacro
Unload Me
End Sub

Okay, I've been tasked with putting a "loading splash screen" on the
screen while a macro works in the background (this macro could take
30-45
seconds). So I created a simple dialog box and have it show itself while
the
macro is loading. Once it finishes I have it hide itself but it doesn't
work. (Box1.Hide) Instead, the user has to click the x button to close
the
dialog box.
How can I make the dialog box close itself?
