Am doing research at a university where playback of users actions in Excel is
useful. This is provided in large part by macros, however, I think it would
be useful if there was a feature that allowed for recording of real-time use
(i.e. recording of pauses that the user makes). This would be easy enough to
do if there were a timer running in the background and the time between user
interactions was put in the macro as sleep(time) commands for the macro
thread.

I haven't as yet seen any function in Excel that can do this? If there is,
then please reply!
