Hi,

This is my first post, sorry it is so long!

I am trying to build some customisation for an add-in my company i
trialling. The add-in receives an order from a server to which th
spreadsheet is linked, and adds a line to the worksheet showing th
relevant data - price, type, etc. The functionality in the addin allow
you to right click on an order and choose whether to accept or rejec
it - this information is then sent back through the server.

So far so good. My problem is, we need to have a time constraint on th
accept/reject bit - if the order has not been accepted within 3
seconds of arriving, it must be automatically rejected.

I have created a userform that pops up, shows the details of the order
and has a progress bar counting down, changing colour as it gets close
to 30 seconds. Failure to click on the Accept or Reject button trigger
an automatic Rejection message, and also indicates that it was
"TimeOut" rather than a deliberate rejection.

My problem is that there will be more than one order coming in within
30 second timeframe. I need a box to pop up for each order that come
in, with the "oldest" on top, all counting down. It is essential tha
these messages be clear and visible (ie they can't be just cells on th
worksheet, the salesmen have lots of different windows and apps ope
and this needs to be eyecatching). I have absolutely no idea how to d
this, and would really appreciate any help!
