Default Excel (not spreadsheet) Screen refresh while VBA is running

Hello

a relatively basic question but haven't found the solution yet. While
a macro is running in Excel, and when the user selects another
application, the Excel screen is not updated anymore (that's not too
much of an issue) but when the user gets back to Excel and the macro
is still running, the screen is still not updated. That's a bit of an
issue when a very slow macro is running and I want to monitor the
progress, either through Application.Statusbar or through a userform-
based statusbar. The value on display is basically the value as of
when the user selected another application in the first place.

Is there a way to do some sort of Excel Screen refresh or any way
around this problem?

Thanks in advance
Charles
