I've implemented one of the progress bars suggested in the threads here. I
am looping through a named range and as the process is running, the rows are
changing as expected. What I need is a way to minimize the current sheet or
workbook (setting Visible=false breaks my code). I searched the VBA help for
a way to minimize the sheet but cant find it. How can minimize the sheet or
workbook?

Amil,

Try this

activewindow.WindowState = xlMinimized

With ActiveWindow
.WindowState = xlMinimized
End with

or for the application

application.WindowState = xlMinimized


to restore xlNormal
