Is there an easy way (programmatically or otherwise) to show that a macro is
running? The hour glass doesn't always show and simple things, like a
message box, stop the code while there showing. Also, I don't want to kill
the keyboard - just in case something unexpected happens and I need to Break.

I have this same issue in other applications. Most notably MS Project. So
a somewhat universal solution would be nice (I don't want much, do I?).

Thanks,
Will
