Default "running" page

I have a spreadsheet with a fairly complex series of macros that create
reports. These macros take several seconds to run and pull data from several
sheets. Is there a way to mask that process from the user with a page that
shows while the macros are running rather than seeing the data being
filtered, sheets being added etc ?

Thanks in advance,
Chaz

Hi Chaz

Use this in your code so the user don't see your macro working
You can select a sheet first with a nice picture or text before you set ScreenUpdating to false

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

'your code

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
