Default running macros, and not showing the steps

I've created a tool that runs several macros to and takes runs for quite some
time. Instead of excel showing all the steps that are going on during each
macro, I would like for excel to stay on the home page (the page where the
macro button is clicked) of the tool and show a "working" status until it is
complete with all the macros.

Is this possible to do?
Thanks for any help.

Sub Macro1()
application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Your code here
application.Screenupdating = true
end sub

Thanks, that works great to hide the steps. Is there a way I can show the
status while its running so the user wont think the program crashed? Maybe a
box that says "working" or something like that.
