Default Runinng excel in the "background"? Help!

I created a program with VBA that takes a value from a cell every minute
triggered by the internal clock and puts the value into another cell.
My client wants this to run all day while he is doing other things with
excel. Is it possible to run this in the background? It doesn't seem
likely that you can run other excel spreadsheets while another is doing
it's thing every minute or so. Any ideas? - Don

He can always open another instance of Excel. I think that would be the
best.
