Excel has a few events that you could tie into. But those will fire when excel
starts the recalculating. There's nothing that I know of that will monitor when
the calculation stops.

I was afraid of that.

Is there some way to run a macro when the cell changes so it displays a
message box that says "Calculating..." until the formulas are done
calculating at which point the message box could go away?

Thanks again,

I don't think you can change this behavior.

I have a worksheet (Excel 2007) that has to recalculate a lot of cells when a
user changes the value in one of the input cells, and it takes a decent
amount of time for the calculations to complete. In the status bar it
displays "Calculating... (x%)", but I would like to have this be more
prominent so the user knows to wait for the formulas to finish their
calculations.

Is there a way to display a message in the middle of the screen that says
"Calculating..." while the formulas recalculate?

Thanks,
Brad
