hi,

I'm trying to show on a message dialogbox with the time is taking for the
macro to run. Or some kind of message that will let the user know that the
macro still running... Sometimes, the users get crazy and start clicking
everything like if the computer is not responding when actually the macro is
running.

I appreciate your help.
