"Processing" Pop up box
I have a macro that takes a couple of seconds to complete and since I have the screen update turned off, I want a pop up box that will say something like "Processing your information" with periods that "move". The moving period concept will look like this: this. this.. this... this.... Of course I don't want it to type "This" four times; I'm just showing you how the periods should move. -- Tha BeatMaker ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tha BeatMaker's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=23998 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=384068 |

"Processing" Pop up box
I use the statusbar at the bottom of excel's window to give the user the status.
Application.statusbar = "Processing this" 'do this application.statusbar = "Processing that" 'do that application.statusbar = false 'reset it when you're done.

"Processing" Pop up box
Would you consider using the status bar? During processing: Application.StatusBar = "Processing...." Then, when done: Application.StatusBar = FALSE Regards, Ron -- Ron Coderre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ron Coderre's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=21419 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=384068 |
