this refers to my earlier post about a progress bar, it seems that its
a no-no, so how would i go about displaying a message that just says
some info i.e loading but disapears once the word doc is open, I know
how to display userforms and message boxes but the problem is that the
excel is programmed to shut down once the code for loading the word doc
has run, so i can get a message displayed until the word doc opens then
my excel shuts down.
