is it possible to have message box pop up when an
auto_open marco calls another macro? Basically, i will
like it to tell the user that the application is running.
and disappears once the marco stops.

example of steps.
1.user click on application
2.application auto_open and run marco
3.message box appear with message "marco is in process"
option for user to click OK(the macro in process is based
on the processing time of the marco that is called by
sub auto_open())
4.second message box "marco has completed" option for
user to click OK (the macro in completed is based on the
completion time of the marco that is called by sub
auto_open())

I have completed step one and two. i need help with the
message box, step 3 and 4
please let me know if i have to create a form
Thanks in advance
