returning the default value (Yes, in this example).

Not correct. If the Popup times out with no user input, the
result is -1. Sorry for any confusion.

Joe,

Set a reference to "Windows Script Host Object Model" and then
use
code like

Dim SH As IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShell
Set SH = New IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShell
SH.Popup "Hello World", 5, "Title", vbYesNo

This will show a message box for 5 seconds, and then disappear,
returning the default value (Yes, in this example).

Is vba able to put a timer on a MSgBox, so that OK is
"clicked"
after a
specified time and a macro/code can continue?

I have tried allsorts but with Msgbox one seems to get
complete
freezing of
the app and vba.

Any help much appreciated.
