Hi again,
Is it possible/how to change the priority level of a running macro within a macro itself. For example, when doing file i/o which is intensive i would like to lower it's priority so that it doesn't hog cpu. I won't have to worry about the macro holding the file lock for too long because this will be the only process accessing the file. Thanks again. Bing |

You can't change the priority of Excel's macros.

Hi Chip,
Thanks for responding. How about programmatically changing the priority level of the Excel parent application within a macro? Does VBA offer such functionality?

I don't believe this is possible.
