Default Timed message box

The msgbox code fails when the worksheet is protected?????????

If you're doing more things, maybe you could either:

Unprotect the sheet (you'll have to know the password), do the work and
reprotect the sheet with the same password.

or

Check to see if the worksheet is protected. If it is, just give an error
message and exit your procedure.

Hi each and all ,

My Idea is to be able to have a msg box appear to reminder the user to
perform a task, at say 10 min intervals, the user should have the option
to
turn this off or vary the interval between mgs box reminders, each time
the
msg box appears, pressing ok should close the msg box and restart the
timer
for the next msgbox.

Thanks as always
