Default Saving files. Please wait.

You can't have a popup display while the file is saving.because
MsgBox and WshShell.Popup are both modal; that is, they halt code
execution until they are replied to. You could create a UserForm,
display it modelessly , save the file then kill the form. This
will work in XL2000 and higher.

MyForm.Show vbModeless
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Unload MyForm

A little help again please. I need a macro that will

Display a message box saying "Please wait saving files..."

Save the active file (I know how to do this)

Close the message box.

End macro.



Thanks very much.
