Default autostart and "on" and "off" macro

If you can get macro2 to run when macro1 is running, then I suppose that is
fine. I don't see the point of calling macro1 when you have set the variable
to off.

I think the references I gave your are better, but it depends on what you
are doing and how much time macro1 takes to run and if it needs to be run as
much as you have it run.

Also, what your are doing may better be handled with events - again, I don't
know what you are doing.

Thanks for the reply, Tom, but this isn't exactly my intention.

Here is my current macro (which works, i suppose, but there may be a
more elegant way)...


Code:
--------------------
Public Sub Macro1()
Do Until OnOff = 0
DoEvents
.
.
.
Loop
End Sub
--------------------



Code:
--------------------
Private Sub Macro2()
If OnOff = 0 Then
OnOff = 1
Macro1
ElseIf OnOff = 1 Then
OnOff = 0
Macro1
End If
End Sub
--------------------


Is there an easier way?
