Default OnTime function

Hi all,

I'm trying to use the OnTime function...here's the little code

application.onkey Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "mod1"

now the code works, but here's what i would like to get: I want the module
"mod1" to be run every second, but without it being stopped by the user who
might be busy. Now here's the strange thing..

On my Pc with WinXp Pro, the user can work in a sheet and the module runs
every second, no problem...
But when I try this on a WinME system, and I type in cells (or whatever
action I'm taking...) while the module should be running, it waits till I've
finished writing in cells...
Is this a setting,if so how to change this, or does someone else know a nice
way to let a piece of code run in the background every 1 second?

thanks in advance

max
