I believe there is a InternetSetStatusCallback function which will do what
your after.

Hi there,

I would like to write an application in VBA which communicates with a
servlet. That has been done with excel 2002 by "using" wininet.dll for this
purpose but my problem is that when I send a request to the servlet, the
excel stops working until it receives the requested data. How can I solve
this problem? I've thought about using threads, but I don't know where to
start. Is excel 2003 a better option in this case? Any ideas will be
apperciated.

Thanks
Daniel
