Here is some quick code based on that link... Toss it into a command button
and give it a try. It resets the application settings you may have changed,
and also give you the option to resume the loop...

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim lng As Long
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Application.EnableCancelKey = xlErrorHandler
For lng = 1 To 1000000

Next lng
Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
If Err = 18 Then
If MsgBox("Do you want to stop?", vbYesNo, "Quit?") = vbYes Then
Application.StatusBar = False
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End
Else
Resume
End If
End If
End Sub
