Pause macro user selection, then resume
 

Hi All,

I want to pause macros, which allow user to select a range that can not be
predetermined or a set range each use, then resume macro. or allow data entry
in unspecified range, then resume.

Thanks.

Macros don't pause... You can have one Macro run to completion and then based
on the actions of the user initiate another macro to complete the task. You
can you use the on change event or any number of other ways to accomplish
what you need. If it is unclear how to do this post back with a few more
details and some code for more assistance.

Hi Linda,
I faced a simular problem, and I solved it with a loop which runs until
the user makes an action (in this case until he or she selects
something else). In the loop state: DoEvents. Then the macro runs in
the background and the user can use Excel. My loop looks like this:

Do Until a < b Or g = 1
DoEvents
b = TypeName(Selection)
Loop

For me it is perfect; maybe if you change it is works for you too.

Good Luck,
